Tourpedo Inc., the Raleigh-based software firm, is launching an online auction division with a music memorabilia auction containing items form popular artists with 100 percent of the sales going to support the Make-A-Wish program. Make-A-Wish grants wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
Some auction highlights include the following items: signed guitars by Moby and Rodney Atkins, a signed shirt worn on tour by Michael Buble, 2 tickets to the Toby Keith concert of your choice, a signed poster by Dave Matthews Band, and more. The auction will start on Monday, July 20th @ 9 AM EDT and will close on Thursday, July 30th at 9 PM EDT. To bid, go to www.tourpedo.com/auctions.
Tourpedo live streams concerts for premier artists, venues, and festivals, both for profit and to support charitable organizations. Tourpedo decided to launch this new division in order to provide its artists with another way to give back to charities.
Tourpedo’s management team also started NextLot, an Inc. 500 software company that streams live auctions.
