On January 6, 2021, former Homenetmen Central Executive Chairman Yeghpayr Karnig Mgrditchian passed away in Lebanon. Yeghpayr Karnig had been a lifelong Homenetmen member and was a widely respected leader, who will be dearly missed. Yeghpayr Karnig most recently visited several chapters in our region in 2018 during the Homenetmen 100th Anniversary celebrations.

In lieu of flowers, Central Executive has set up a fund in honor of Yeghpayr Karnig Mgrditchian. As the fund is based in Lebanon, donations must be sent via wire transfer, which may be subject to steep transaction fees. To facilitate the process of sending donations, the Homenetmen Eastern US Regional Executive is collecting all donations from our region and will wire one lump sum. A list of individual donors and their donation amounts will also be sent to CE and the Mgrditchian family.

To donate by check, please follow the instructions after clicking the donate button.
