Music Saves Lives part of Epicenter Twenty Ten as Nonprofit Saving Lives through Music

Music Saves Lives® is the bridge between music, entertainment and important life-saving causes has partnered with one of the nations biggest concert event this year.  Monster Energy, a supporter of Music Saves Lives for the past 6 years, has invited us out to encourage life saving opportunities, and offer up a VIP experience to supports that monetarily get behind our efforts.  Russel Hornbeek, director of MSL “This is our second year to be part of Epicenter.  Its great to see the bands and other sponsors support what we do.  Monster Energy has been part of saving thousands of lives over the last few years and their impact on the community stretches much deeper than an energy product on the shelf at your local market.” 

If you’re a huge fan of KISS, Eminem, Rise Against, Bush, Blink 182, Papa Roach or 30 Seconds to Mars Music Saves Lives is offering a chance to go beyond VIP and receive an experience to remember, including a special gift bag of surprises.  Unite the United, a foundation started by Kevin Lyman of the Vans Warped Tour, is offering several VIP EBay auctions for the Music Saves Lives / Epicenter VIP experience.  All donations will help in our “Bring Life On-Line” campaign to register youth for the national marrow program.   

These VIP auctions can be found on EBay HERE.  All donations are to benefit Music Saves Lives a 501(c)3 nonprofit and are tax deductable.  Check with your tax advisor. 

Music Saves Lives has encouraged over 1 million young people to donate blood during the last 4 years. Music Saves Lives has been honored by The American Red Cross for organizing the best youth donor program five years running.
