    ANC-Grassroots is on Thanksgiving weekend

    GLENDALE - A generous anonymous donation from a community activist
    will enable and ensure broad participation in the ANC Grassroots on
    Thanksgiving Weekend, November 25-27, announced the Armenian National
    Committee-Western Region Board of Directors.

    The ANC-WR has decided to significantly lower the registration fee
    from $150 ($100 for students with valid ID) to $49 ($39 for students)
    to ensure that finances would not deter interested individuals from
    participating in ANC Grassroots.

    "After seeing the scope and importance of ANC Grassroots and the
    incredible tools that it would provide its participants, I wanted to
    make sure that the program would enjoy the broadest participation
    possible," said the generous donor, who wanted to remain anonymous
    in a letter to the ANC-WR.

    ANC Grassroots will take place on Thanksgiving Weekend beginning on
    Friday November 25 and conclude on Sunday, November 27. It brings
    together some of the foremost experts in law, policy, politics, the
    arts and philanthropy to address some of the more pressing issues of
    advocacy and to provide the necessary tools for activists to become
    involved using the many avenues available to them, which they will
    learn about during ANC Grassroots.

    "We are extremely grateful to our donor whose generous contribution
    will allow more people to participate in our groundbreaking ANC
    Grassroots weekend. Our community is fortunate to have individuals who
    recognize the importance of activism and are enabling us to make this a
    more successful event," said ANC-WR Executive Director, Lara Garibian.
