2009 Special Event

 

2009 Vahagn Setian Charitable Foundation Special Event

We want to extend our sincere thanks to all who came and participated.

The Foundation was honored to present for the first time "Responsible Artist Award" (RAA) to CAROLINA LIAR. The award gives recognition to artists that live an exemplary life-style and act as a role model for our young generation. In today's tabloid-filled media world that seems to focus on the wrongdoings of today's stars, we feel it is appropriate to recognize artists that truly set a good example for our youth. Congratulations once again to CAROLINA LIAR.
