Dear Friends,
Enclosed is a donation for your wonderful newspaper. I
send the donation in memory of my father, Donabed
Vanitzian, who was interested in journalism as a career
but was unable to pursue it when World War II broke out.
I learned of his passion for journalism after his death,
after I had concluded a successful 19-year career as a
professional journalist.
I encourage all of you to continue in journalism, because
we need you to document current affairs. If you will not
do it, who will?
God bless you all.
