/PanARMENIAN.Net/ On the eve of April 24th, ArmeniaDiaspora and
Armenica encourage to "Light the Night" by lighting a candle through
the night of the 23rd and into the morning of the 24th, in remembrance
of the 1.5 million souls that fell victim to the annihilation machine
of the Ottoman Empire. `Each lit candle placed on the window sill will
represent a soul lost throughout the years of 1915 and 1923. Together,
let’s "Light the Night", let’s vow to remember, to never forget, and
to pursue justice and peace for all humanity.

The Light the Night campaign started two years ago in connection to
the 90th remembrance day of the Armenian Genocide and we wish to
continue this campaign hoping that it will be a permanent
tradition. Last year the campaign received wide TV and radio coverage
in Armenia and this year Printinfo has volunteered to contribute to
the campaign by printing flyers free of charge for distribution within
Armenia. We hope that you also could join us in this tradition,’ says
the statement issued by the organizations.
