  • AGBU Camp Nubar taught me life skills that I still use to this day. I serve on both the Camp Nubar and AGBU Young Professionals of Greater New York committees because I want to give every young Armenian the chance to grow and develop into the person they’re meant to be. I am grateful to be in a position to help others be a part of something that is bigger than ourselves.
    Armen Shamamian, AGBU Camp Nubar Alumnus
    New York, USA
  • AGBU came to my rescue in my hour of need, and I still remember how I felt – like I hit the jackpot! I give back to AGBU and take the baton from previous generations and will pass it onto the future generations to come. With each donation I make, I continue the legacy of AGBU.
    Tigran Kurdiyan, AGBU Scholarship Alumnus
    London, United Kingdom
  • AGBU has been the only constant in my life since I was a child – nurturing me personally, professionally and as an Armenian. Now I volunteer as a Chapter and AGBU Young Professionals leader because I’m committed to building a place that leaves a mark on future generations of Armenians in South America.
    Ari Chamlian, AGBU Colegio Nubarian, Scouts and Athletics Alumnus
