THE TERCHOONIAN HOME FOUNDATION RAISES MONEY FOR THE TERCHOONIAN HOME ORPHANAGE
Southfield, MI - On Saturday October 24th, 2009 the Terchoonian Home Foundation's 2nd Bi-Annual Fundraising Party took place and was a complete success. The sold out crowd of over 500 people were entertained throughout the evening with music and performances by an authentic Mariachi band, Shrine Highlanders, Detroit Salsa Dancers, Levendes Greek Band, Khoren Mouradian and "D-On-Knowns", violinist Yervand Kalajian, and the headline singer for the evening Harout Khatchoyan.
Mr. Herman Hintiryan, head of the Terchoonian Home Foundation, was extremely surprised and pleased with the turnout and the amount raised for the children. He says they were expecting a very modest turnout given the economic climate being endured in the state of Michigan.
One of the high points of the evening took place at midnight with the raffle being drawn. The grand prize of a Mediterranean Cruise for two, generously donated by Yezekyan Fine Jewelry of Boca Raton, FL, was won by Mr. & Mrs. Aram Churukian of Livonia, Michigan. Following the raffle was another crowd favorite, the serving of soujouk and eggs.
The singers and performers went on into the early hours of Sunday morning. Mission Statement: The Terchoonian Home Foundation raises money and other supplies for the Terchoonian Home Orphanage which is located in Gyumri, Armenia. Everybody at Terchoonian Home Foundation would like to express their gratitude to everyone who attended, contributed, performed, and helped with this event. Through everyone's support the evening was extremely enjoyable and successful.
