NEW YORK, NY – MichaelAram.com announces it is donating 100% of proceeds to raise awareness and support for the Armenian people being impacted by the current conflict in Nagorno Karabagh.
Starting on Friday, October 2, MichaelAram.com will be selling 10 editions of 5 different sculptures and donating the proceeds to The Armenia Fund (www.armeniafund.org).
In addition to the funds raised, Michael and his family will match the proceeds, doubling the financial donation to this worthy cause.
“For the past several days Armenians in Nagorno Karabagh have been under military attack. Our family stands with the Armenian people and we hope for peace in the region to come quickly. To raise funds in support of those who are under siege I am donating 100% of the proceeds from the sale of ten sculptures. They are pieces which for me symbolize the spirit of Armenia and represent Hope, Peace, Strength, and New Beginnings,” Said Founder & CEO Michael Aram.
