ANCA-WR 2025 Gala Honorees
Young Kim (R-CA40)
This year, ANCA-WR honors Republican Congresswoman Young Kim, who represents California's 40th Congressional District, with the "Legislator of the Year" award. The Representative has been a strong and principled voice for the Armenian-American community. As a member of the Congressional Armenian Caucus and the House of Foreign Affairs Committee, Rep. Kim has consistently taken a firm stance against Azerbaijani aggression. Her bipartisan leadership has earned her the trust and respect of Armenian-Americans throughout California and the entire country.
Christian Solidarity International
The Armenian National Committee of America - Western Region (ANCA-WR) is proud to announce that Christian Solidarity International (CSI) will receive its prestigious "Human Rights Champion" Award at the 2025 ANCA-WR Gala Banquet, which will take place at the Fairmont Century Plaza on the 26th of October. This recognition honors CSI's steadfast and courageous advocacy for the Armenian people of Artsakh, particularly in the face of Azerbaijan's ongoing campaign of ethnic cleansing, cultural erasure, and anti-Christian agenda.
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
Speaker Emerita of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi will be honored with the 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award at its Annual Awards Banquet Gala. Rep. Pelosi is being recognized for her historic leadership as one of the most powerful voices in Congress to champion the Armenian Cause. From her earliest years in office, she worked closely with San Francisco's Armenian-American community, raising their concerns in Washington and ensuring their priorities were reflected on the national stage. She played a decisive role in advancing multiple Armenian Genocide resolutions, breaking through decades of resistance to secure historic recognition, while also leading efforts to support Armenia's sovereignty, provide humanitarian aid to the refugees of Artsakh, and hold Azerbaijan accountable for its aggression. Her record stands as one of the most consequential legacies of advocacy for justice and human rights in the Armenian-American story.
