Recently, the OSPIRG Foundation
worked with a broad coalition of environmental, health, religious, and
business organizations to enact the clean cars program, Oregon’s first-ever
statewide limits on global warming pollution from new cars and trucks.
OSPIRG Foundation is currently working to reduce global warming pollution
by increasing Oregon’s use of energy conservation and clean renewable energy
sources like wind and solar power instead of fossil fuels. The ticket
sales will help support OSPIRG Foundation’s work to bring clean energy
to Oregon.
“We hope that Oregonians
will support our work by buying these great Gold Circle tickets.
They should jump at the chance to meet such a great musician and activist
as Bonnie,” concluded Baumann.
OSPIRG Foundation is a 501(c)(3)
organization, that offers an independent and articulate voice on behalf
of the public interest in Oregon, and is the sister organization to Oregon
State Public Interest Research Group (OSPIRG). More information at
