    Glendale native Alina Azizian brings strong grassroots organizing and
    advocacy skills to new position

    Glendale, CA- The Armenian National Committee - Glendale Chapter announced
    today the appointment of Alina Azizian as its new Executive Director. The
    decision comes after a month-long search to augment its office staff, which
    serves the interests of over 70,000 Armenians living in Glendale.

    "We are excited to have Alina as a part of our team," commented Board
    Chairman, Pierre Chraghchian. "Her experience in grassroots organizing as
    well as her knowledge of local issues makes her a strong asset to our
    organization. We are confident in her commitment to this community."

    Alina Azizian was born and raised in Glendale, California. She attended the
    University of California, Berkeley, earning her Bachelor of Arts in
    Political Science with honors. Most recently, she served as the Campaign
    Manager for the Democratic Party in San Mateo County. She supervised over
    500 volunteers throughout the 3 month campaign. Overall, the campaign had a
    high success rate with a 74% county-wide voter turnout and 81% of endorsed
    candidates winning seats. Aside from her experience campaigning, Azizian is
    a former ANCA Leo Sarkissian Intern and a former summer intern with the ANC
    - SF/Bay Area chapter. On campus, Azizian was a dedicated member of the
    U.C. Berkeley Senate and Co-President of the Armenian Students Association.
    At home, she has worked on outreach at Glendale High School and has always
    remained an active member of the community.

    The offices of the Armenian National Committee - Glendale are located at 721
    S. Glendale Ave. Community leaders will be invited to meet Ms. Azizian
    along with the new 2004-2005 ANC Board Members at a local mixer in early
