ARS appeals to join efforts in supporting Armenian families in SyriaJuly 10, 2015 - 09:23 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The Armenian Relief Society (ARS) of Eastern U.S. is appealing to the public to join its efforts in supporting Armenian families in Syria, the Armenian Weekly reports. “There are hundreds of Armenian families with small children who remain trapped in the conflict zone with limited or no resources. Your support will help us provide families assistance, during this critical time. The need is enormous and our resources are stretched thin,” read a statement issued by the ARS Eastern U.S. Board of Directors. The ARS Eastern U.S. has put together the “Sponsor a Syrian Armenian Family” Program to help assist Syrian Armenian families in need. The program calls for donations of any amount to distribute basic needs including food, water, safe shelter, baby formula, clothing, and utilities.
