GLENDALE—The Armenian Youth Federation Western United States will host a march to “Save Tavush” on May 8 at 7 p.m., beginning from St. Mary’s Armenian Apostolic Church, located at 500 S. Central Ave., Glendale, CA 91204, to the Armenian Consulate in Glendale, located at 346 N. Central Ave., Glendale, CA 91203.

The AYF-WUS is joined by both the Western Prelacy of the Armenian Apostolic Church, as well as the Armenian Catholic Church as prominent religious institutions of the Armenian community.

In addition, the AYF-WUS is joined by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Western United States, ARF “Shant” Student Association, AYF Juniors, Homenetmen Western USA, Armenian National Committee Western Region, Armenian Legal Center for Justice and Human Rights, Armenian Relief Society Western USA, Hamazkayin Western Region, Hayk for Our Heroes, and Unified Young Armenians—all prominent and leading organizations of the Armenian Diaspora united in support of the national movement taking place in the Homeland.

It is imperative that the Armenian Americans of Los Angeles join the youth of the Western United States—a stronghold of the Armenian people—and make a stand to show our brothers and sisters in the Homeland that their efforts are acknowledged and empowered across the world in the diaspora. The AYF urges each and every Armenian to join them in solidarity this Wednesday to make sure the governments of both Armenia and Azerbaijan hear their voices, and to ensure that our Armenian compatriots protesting for self-determination across Armenia know they have the diaspora’s support.

Founded in 1933, the Armenian Youth Federation is the largest and most influential Armenian-American youth organization. With chapters throughout the United States and affiliated organizations around the world, the AYF actively strives to advance the social, political, educational, and cultural awareness of all Armenian-American youth.
