Upcoming Initiatives
Between fundraisers, discussions, presentations, and more, the Armenian Youth Club will be busy
connecting members with Armenia’s culture and acquainting non-Armenians with the country’s culture.
Creating a vibrant and engaging program for high school students in Athens, Greece, will involve
blending cultural education, community service, skill development, and fun.
Gatherings will feature Armenian foods and planning events such as the Heritage Fair and Club Fair.
We will raise awareness about the Armenian genocide which impacts us greatly.

Future Goals
Our club member Staphania Polychronopoulou suggested visiting Armenia as a club to engage in community service.
Whether we prepare delicious food for heritage fairs, or set a goal to raise enough money to travel
together, the Armenian Youth Club will thrive while educating students and having a great time.
