In 1947, a group of Armenian American Veterans of World War II gathered at the Pine Street Potato Chip Company located on Gorham Street in Lowell. At this meeting the Armenian American Veterans of Lowell was established. Menas Boghosian was elected Commander and Kirk Kirkorian as the Finance Officer. The group grew in numbers and in activity and on February 4, 1952, the organization was officially chartered under the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In 1961, the Armenian American Veterans Organization joined the Veterans' Council of Lowell, Ma. Over the years, the group has served the Armenian and the Greater Lowell Community in many ways. They have volunteered their services to veterans' hospitals and other veterans' organizations. The Veterans have sponsored and continue to sponsor Christmas parties for children of Local Parishes and for many years donated Easter baskets for the Children at Easter. Roses were given to the woman after church services on Mother's Day.
