Press Release Body = Tampa, FL -

The web site www.onemilliondollarsforhistory.com has been launched to raise needed
funds for the preservation, education and enjoyment of history with the goal being
to raise $1,000,000.00 within 12 months. This initiative undertaken by
onemilliondollarsforhistory.com will expand efforts to educate the public about the
need for donations to preserve historic places, buildings and offer support to all
groups working to make history more enjoyable by offering 1 pixel of web space per
each dollar donated to support the mission of onemilliondollarsforhistory.com.

\"As a student of history I recognized the need to preserve & support \'history\' and
the organizations that support preservation and education including those
re-enactment events & festivals that work hard at not only recreating historical
events but to make \'all things\' history more enjoyable for the general public and
most importantly our children,\" said Evan J. Andriopoulos, Founder of One Million
Dollars For History Dot Com. \"I grew tired of watching \'all things historic\' suffer
under the lack of funding and after reading of a number of schools that had to
cancel field trips due to budgetary cuts I decided it was time to act,\" said an
enthusiastic Andriopoulos.

\"I firmly believe that our mission designed after the now famous \'million dollar
home page\' will instead go toward a cause that is near and dear to my
heart...history and it\'s preservation, education and enjoyment\" -followed
Andriopoulos. \"why not do something with the money that will benefit our history and
future generations,\" said history buff Andriopoulos.

OneMillionDollarsforhistory.com offers the corporate donor a niche marketing
opportunity and the private donor the opportunity to show their support for the
mission of OneMillionDollarsforhistory.com all supported by press & media coverage.
We will approach major corporations and private individuals to support our mission
via print and electronic mediums. Instead of the direct sale of pixels of for fees,
each donor will receive an equal trade of one pixel per dollar where they can place
their logo-link, message or picture within that appropriate size. These will appear
on the main page and will eventually overtake all the current text, tabs and
information on the site so that 1,000,000 pixels will cover the
OneMillionDollarsforhistory.com webpage.

\"With this in mind we look to act in a much faster manner in our distribution of
funds and we ask all organizations, educational institutions, groups, societies and
more that are working to support the education, preservation and enjoyment of
history to apply for funding,\" said Andriopoulos. \"After myself having read of the
cuts in budgets, loss of interest in history studies among our children and the
process of applying for emergency funding I decided it is time to streamline this
process with a 30 day response to those applicants once we have reached
$1,000,000.00.\"

The One Million Dollars For History Dot Com program is a result of a year long
process that included an examination of its current funding options, consultation
with experts in the field of historic preservation fund raising, and testing of
various approach techniques with existing and potential donors.
