Merdinian Gala

Merdinian Armenian Evangelical School is thrilled to host our 44th Annual Gala, Building the Future Together, at the Jonathan Club in Los Angeles on Saturday, February 28, 2026. Join us for an evening of joy, connection, and purpose as we celebrate our mission and community.

 

Before tickets officially go on sale, we invite you to join us as an Honorary Sponsor. By committing early, your generosity will be recognized in our formal invitation and program, and you will stand as a visible champion for our students’ future. To be included, please confirm your sponsorship or donation by Friday, December 12, 2025.

 

Founded in 1982 by the Armenian Evangelical Union of North America (AEUNA) and the Armenian Missionary Association of America (AMAA), Merdinian has served generations of students from preschool through 8th grade. For 44 years, God has blessed our school with dedicated students, parents, and educators who have helped fulfill our mission of developing compassionate Christians, responsible Armenian-American citizens, effective communicators, analytical thinkers, and thoughtful leaders.

 

In today’s world, faith-based Armenian education is more vital than ever. At Merdinian, we remain steadfast in our commitment to excellence in learning, faith, and community.

 

To sustain and strengthen this mission, we are proud to introduce The Merdinian Fund, an annual effort supporting the areas that make our school exceptional: innovative classrooms, faculty development, financial aid, and enriched student programs. This year, the Fund will help provide scholarships for the 2026–2027 school year and support classroom technology and furniture upgrades. Your contribution to the Fund through your Honorary Sponsorship will help us reach our $500,000 annual goal, ensuring that every child continues to learn, grow, and thrive.

 

Please reserve your sponsorship today and share your contact information on the digital donation form, or include it with your letter if you are mailing a check. A formal invitation will follow in the coming weeks. If you are unable to attend, please consider making a donation.

 

Thank you for helping us build Merdinian’s future together and for your unwavering commitment to Christian Armenian education.

 

Gratefully,
