HURRICANE KATRINA VICTIMS

Van Nuys, CA – On September 22, 2005, the AGBU Manoogian-Demirdjian
School Student Council Executive Committee and School Business Manager
Levon Keshishian hand delivered a check in the amount of $12,035.50 to

Upon receipt of the donation, Jennifer Bailey, American Red Cross Van
Nuys Service Center Program Manager, thanked the Student Council
Executive Committee for their generous work extending her
congratulations on their achievement.
