YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 29, ARMENPRESS. System of a Down frontman, rock star Serj Tankian and Initialized Capital and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian have accepted Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan’s challenge to join a monthly donation campaign of around 10,000 drams to the Hayastan All Armenian Fund charity organization.

“I hereby accept the challenge by PM of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan to donate $23/mo to the All Armenia Fund (https://www.himnadram.org/en/donate) and in turn challenge @esrailian @vaheberberian and @angelasarafyan to meet this challenge. Feel free to join the challenge and challenge others to do the same. We can do more with larger numbers of people donating less than a small group donating more.#allarmeniafundchallenge”, Tankian said on Facebook.

Alexis Ohanian, in turn, accepted the challenge and tweeted to Pashinyan “You got it,@NikolPashinyan”.

Speaking during a live broadcast of the annual telethon fundraiser of the All Armenian Fund, Pashinyan said the charity organization will become more effective if many people will start making small donations rather major donations by limited number of people. The Armenian PM challenged three Armenian-Americans in entertainment, Serj Tankian, Kim Kardashian and Alexis Ohanian, to start by donating small amounts of money a month to the Hayastan fund.
