About Me
***Tickets On Sale Now**We are holding a fashion show, “Fashion Legacy,†on July 12, 2008, to honor the memory of our beautiful, beloved daughter and sister Nataline Sarkisyan. Nataline was in dire need of a liver transplant soon after undergoing a bone marrow transplant. Our insurance carrier CIGNA denied the doctors’ multiple requests for the life-saving operation and Nataline’s chance for life was taken from her. On December 20, 2007, Nataline passed away at the age of 17. Nataline’s story was publicized on CNN,news world-wide, newspapers, radio and covered by most other media. Nataline, like most teenagers, had many dreams … among them, to attend fashion design school. Her plan was to go to FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising) in Los Angeles next year after she graduated from high school. Nataline will never have that chance. With your help, however,other young adults will have the opportunity to pursue their dreams. We are writing to ask you for your help in the way of sponsoring the upcoming event. The fashion show will take place in the showroom of the Mercedes-Benz dealership in Calabasas. Over 600 attendees are expected, in addition to celebrities and the news media. The proceeds from this event will go directly to student scholarship programs. Students who choose to attend a fashion school, culinary art school or medical school, will benefit from this charitable cause. This is something Nataline would have wanted and she’d be so delighted. We now have a mission to accomplish. We will do everything we can to fulfill our daughter's dreams and help others at the same time, but that is where your help is needed. We have received sponsorship commitments from Monster Energy, Trader Joe's, In Style Magazine, FIDM, Hello Kitty, MAC, Nashville Wraps, Coca Cola, Avon, Dash and others. We are actively seeking out more vendors to make this event successful. If you could please help us with a contribution, it would be so appreciated. If you are able to contribute to the Nataline Sarkisyan Foundation, please complete the attached Contribution form and send it to the address shown on the form. We thank you for your charity and support. With heartfelt thanks and gratitude, Nataline’s Family, Hilda, Koko and Bedig Sarkisyan
