$60000 RAISED
Support A1+!“Over $60000 were raised during a Saturday telethon held in Los Angeles. The telethon was aimed at assisting the families of Armenian political prisoners,” human rights activist and coordinator of the “Committee for the Protection of Armenian Political Prisoners” Vardan Harutiunian informed A1+.
The telethon was live broadcast on two Armenian TV channels.
Before the telethon the Committee had sent one million 900 thousand drams to the families under question.
“Then we had scanty means and could give 60 000 drams to most vulnerable families,” says Vardan Harutiunian.
The telethon is supposed to be continued.
