Our Benefactors
The ARS Eastern USA remembers its benefactors with thanks every year with “hokeehankisd” services at Armenian Eastern Prelacy-affiliated churches. Those benefactors are:
- ARS founder Agnouni
- George and Beatrice Lazarian
- Sophia and Levon Hagopian
- Karekin and Virginia Seroonian
- Alice Norian
- Doris Norian Lentz
- Arpcase Kilerjian
- Hagop “Jack” Mooradian
- Alice Haigazian Berman
- Genevieve Yegeshian
- Yervant and Helen Terzian
In addition, many ARS chapters have local benefactors who are remembered at this time.
This Region-wide remembrance occurs annually on the last Sunday of February. Many ARS chapters sponsor after-church coffee hours or ARS anniversary events in memory of the ARS’s deceased benefactors and members and in celebration of the ARS’s continued vitality and good work.
