For more than a century, through the ANCA and our predecessor organizations, Armenian Americans have served on the front lines of the fight for Armenia liberty. Today, building upon this proud legacy, we advocate for justice for the Armenian Genocide, security for the independent Nagorno Karabakh Republic, stronger U.S.-Armenia relations, and safety for our Middle East Armenian communities.
With your financial support, we can more effectively advance your views and values – countering the enemies of the Armenian nation and cooperating with one another toward a brighter Armenian future for generations to come.
Whether you choose to give now or later, would like to make a one-time gift or a monthly donation, or prefer to support either our advocacy or our educational programs, the choice is yours.

“Advocacy days on Capitol Hill stood out as the highlight of my experience as a Maral Melkonian Avetisyan Fellow. Engaging with our Congressional Representative and Senators on issues vital to my community was both empowering and enlightening. Additionally, I had the opportunity to connect with fellow Armenians from the DC area, broadening my network and deepening my understanding of our shared concerns.” – Nareh Aseyan
