CAMARILLO, CA - February 8, 2005 - As our troops are being asked to
shoulder more responsibility and danger, their families also feel the
burden. Often it is financial. Many troops leave behind young families
for whom the daily task of life can become overwhelming hardships.
Taking heed of this problem, a Southern California man, Armen Eloyan,
has promised to raise over a million dollars to help the families left
behind cope with everyday problems. Eloyan has volunteered his own
money and time to launching a "One Nation" wristband campaign for
Operation Homefront.
Operation Homefront was established in the aftermath of the September
11th disaster to channel volunteer and monetary aid to the families of
troops stationed in Afghanistan and Iraq. The program has successfully
helped thousands of military families deal with everything from car
repair to extremes like homelessness. Their recent pairing with the
entrepreneur is reaping thousands of dollars of aid to families in
need, although much more is needed to meet the climbing demand.
The wristband campaign consisting of selling red silicone "One Nation"
wristbands, similar to those popularized by the Lance Armstrong
foundation, with 100 percebnt of proceeds going directly to Operation
Homefront. So far the campaign has netted thousands of dollars for
families and Eloyan is optimistic about reaching his one million dollar
goal within the year. The wristbands can be purchased on the Operation
Homefront website as well as on http://www.ussoldier.org. As an immigrant
from the former Soviet Union, Eloyan is grateful to American troops for
ensuring the rights of all people around the world.

our troops, please contact:
