Save The Earth Foundation’s 2004 Earth Day Auction took place again this year both online and on the radio.
This annual online plus “On-Air” auction is supported by classic rock and country radio stations across the country. The auction featured some of the world’s most sought after autographed guitars, posters and memorabilia.
Premium Network sponsored the Save The Earth / Earth Day Auction and expanded it to a unique “On-Line and On-Air” auction using the Internet and a dozen top market radio stations hosting live auctions of autographed guitars from the worlds most well known artists such as: Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, Aerosmith, Neil Young, Lenny Kravitz Red Hot Chili Peppers, ZZ Top, Linkin Park and U2. Promoted by the radio station’s on-air personalities, a special 800 number and a web page for each autographed guitar made the auction accessible to people in 12 major US cities
“We use Earth Day to help the Save The Earth Foundation support scientific research and educational programs and promote positive “reduce, reuse and recycle” environmental messaging across the US,” said Ken Margolis, Director of Events for the Save The Earth Foundation. “We plan to expand on the tremendous success we had last year. Millions of people heard the message on the radio and online leading up to the Earth Day event.”
The Save the Earth Foundation functions as a 501 c-3 non-profit public benefit corporation dedicated to the expansion of environmental awareness in our society. We are an organization committed to raising public environmental consciousness and supporting scientific research and educational programs. From the first charity auction on the Internet, to our rock art auctions and our annual Earth Day guitar auctions with major radio stations, the Save the Earth Foundation has a long history of successful fundraising efforts supported by the music and entertainment community.
