The U.S. Venture Open will become an online auction, and a media-thon, instead of a golf outing this year.
Greg Vandenberg of the U.S. Venture Foundation expects to have a lot of unique items, and experiences, available by bid. The money will go to groups that fight the root causes of poverty.
The online auction will get underway July 29th.
Vandenberg believes the media-thon will give them a chance to tell the stories of people fighting poverty in the past, and how programs have helped over the years.
Woodward Radio Group, including WHBY, and WBAY will hold the media-thon on August 12th.
