GLENDALE-The Homenetmen Glendale Ararat Chapter, established in 1978,
with more than 2400 members and two centers, is the largest chapter
within the Western Hemisphere.
In the past 35 years, Ararat has served more than 15,000 youth,
the majority of whom have become successful professionals in their
fields and the leaders of our organization.
The Homenetmen Glendale Ararat Chapter's Athletic Division strives to
serve youth by creating the best family atmosphere for the physical
and intellectual growth of our members through athletics. Our athletes
have represented Western U.S. Homenetmen in several international
competitions. They participate in the Navasartian Games, the
Pan-Armenian Games in Armenia, City Leagues and chapter sponsored
tournaments. In addition to basketball, soccer and volleyball, we
also offer individual sports such as table tennis, martial arts,
tennis, and artistic and rhythmic gymnastics. This year, at the 38th
Navasartian Games, we participated with more than 1000 athletes and
won numerous championships. Our proudest achievement is creating
year-round activities for our youth, using volunteers, parents,
experienced leaders and veteran coaches.
Since its establishment in 1978, the Homenetmen Ararat Chapter's
Scouting Division has been instilling the values of teamwork and
leadership in its scouts. They develop character, citizenship and
acquire scouting knowledge.
The Scouting Division offers the Eagle Scout program for boy scouts,
through which scouts can achieve the Eagle Scout rank, an award that
has considerable significance not only in scouting but also in the
business world.
In addition to athletics and scouting, in its mission to teach the
youth about our rich heritage and to promote cultural programs in the
community, Homenetmen Glendale Ararat chapter's Cultural Division
focuses on introducing younger members to our culture with classes
for painting, dance and choir.
Each year, it is customary to select an individual as a lifetime
Honorary Member of Ararat and introduce the individual to the
community. This year we have selected our long time member and
volunteer, Jasik Jarahian who for so many years has contributed
to Ararat.
An active member of the Homenetmen Regional Executive Board,
she was named the "2001 Model and Exemplary Member" for her many
accomplishments. She was a founding member of the Davtian-Mairamian
after-school program. She has brought her active participation to
numerous non-Armenian charities and other organizations, receiving
many awards and appreciations.

at the annual Women in Business awards ceremony jointly organized
by California Senator Jack Scott (21st District), Assembly Majority
Leader Dario Frommer (43rd District), and Assembly member Carol Liu
(44th District).
The ARS-WUSA Regional Executive first honored her achievements as an
outstanding member of the community during a ceremony.
In March 2007, during Women's History Month, Congressman Adam
Schiff honored her as an extraordinary woman of California's 29th
Congressional District, and her name was entered into the Congressional
Record.
She was named an "Honorary Artsakh Citizen" by the Dzaghgashad Village
in September 2006, after leading several years of efforts to renovate
the village. This honor was bestowed upon her by Ashod Ghoulian,
Speaker of the Parliament of Nagorno-Karabakh.

Commerce with the "Women in Service" award.

Nagorno-Karabakh's Presidential Appreciation medal for her 20 years
of achievements by President Bako Sahakyan.
In November 2012, she received an award by Armenia Fund for her 20
years of service.
In May 2013, she was recognized by the ARS Glendale "Sepan" Chapter
on the occasion of the "Year of the Armenian Mother."

occasions by community leaders. She was recognized by His Eminence
