The Armenian Relief Society (ARS) has launched an emergency fundraising campaign to provide humanitarian assistance to those affected by the recent devastating earthquake in Venezuela, including members of the country’s Armenian community.
The twin earthquakes, measuring magnitudes 7.2 and 7.5, struck within a minute of each other near Venezuela’s Caribbean coast, causing widespread destruction, the collapse of buildings, and significant damage to homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure. Authorities declared a nationwide state of emergency as rescue teams continue searching for survivors, with casualties reported, thousands displaced, and fears that the death toll could continue to rise.
In a statement, the ARS said its global family stands in solidarity with all those impacted by the disaster and called on supporters to contribute to relief efforts.
“The Armenian Relief Society is collecting donations to assist with much-needed humanitarian aid. Every contribution will help bring hope and relief to those impacted,” the organization stated.
Donations can be made through the ARS website at ars1910.org/give.

On October 15, 2025, the Armenian Relief Society (ARS) inaugurated its 115th anniversary celebrations with the unveiling of a bust honoring its founder, Khachatur Malumian (Aknuni), at the ARS Armenia office in Yerevan.
For 115 years, the ARS has worked with the people and for the people — empowering Armenian women from every corner of the world to serve their communities with compassion, purpose, and strength.
From Yerevan to Beirut, Aleppo to Los Angeles, Buenos Aires to Paris, Toronto to Jerusalem, generations of devoted women have embodied the ARS spirit: steadfast in faith, tireless in service, and united in love for their nation.
As Save The ArQ, we extend our deepest respect and admiration to the women of the ARS Jerusalem Chapter — pillars of our local community whose dedication to education, social service, and cultural preservation continues to enrich Armenian life in Jerusalem.
Your work and devotion remind us that service to the nation begins in the heart — and radiates across borders.
With gratitude, we honor you and all ARS women around the world for 115 years of unwavering commitment to the Armenian people.

As part of the Armenian Relief Society’s (ARS) “Hearths of Hope” program, ten homes have been secured for families forcibly displaced from Artsakh. The initiative, implemented in the Shirak region, aims to provide long-term housing and stability for resettled Artsakh Armenians.
On October 16, a housewarming and home blessing ceremony took place in the village of Beniamin as part of the ARS’s 115th anniversary events, with the participation of over 200 ARS members from around the world.
Through the “Hearths of Hope” program, about 15 houses were built or purchased in the villages of Beniamin, Akhurik, Sariar, Hatsik, and Basen. The beneficiaries are required to live in the homes and cultivate the adjacent land for at least ten years, after which the properties will become theirs. Each house was renovated and furnished before being handed over to the families.
The “Hearths of Hope” initiative has received strong support from the diaspora. Thanks to ongoing donations, the ARS plans to continue the program in other regions, including Syunik, helping resettled Artsakh families remain on their ancestral land in Armenia.
