  1. I admire her!!! How many Anahis Araxy Kechejians do we have? The majority is careless, minding their own business and sending meaningless text messages on their iPhones…

  2. I heard Anahis speak at the statehouse commemoration. It was truly inspring to hear such a young person display such poise and vision with her project. It was certainly a poignant moment when the young generation stood up and displayed the survivors photographs. Even more impressive is the identity this project gives young Armenians with a generation that has mostly passed. It gives them a connection to the event, strengthens family ties and promotes activism.
    It is my hope that this will increase through the use of facebook and other social media that are popular. It’s an incredible idea. Abress!

  3. This was really relieving as having recently immigrated to Montreal, once of my primary concerns was if we would be able to pass our national and cultural identity to our two daughters Alik (9) and Dzovag(3) properly. Reading this assured me that yes, it was possible to raise Armenian children in this part of the world, and perfectly so. Thank you Anahis for the reassurance, and all my respect for your work!
