Armenian Diaspora

The 44-day Nagorno-Karabakh War of 2020 triggered one of the largest mobilizations in the modern Armenian diaspora's history. The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund raised $126 million; Armenian Americans alone contributed an estimated $170 million in humanitarian and military aid; Kim Kardashian donated $1 million and used her platform to galvanize global attention. Diaspora Armenians blocked highways in Los Angeles, Brussels, and Paris, and hundreds volunteered for service in Armenia.
