Annual Media Auction
The 2008 AAF-Inland Empire Live Media Auction and subsequent online eBay auction went well.
As a non-profit group revenue raised from the media auction enables the AAF-IE in several ways: 1) fund student scholarships, 2) support monthly speaker luncheons and special events and 3) provide charitable donations to groups like the Inland Harvest Food Bank.
For the fiscal year 2008, the Annual Media Auction was able to sponsor $2,500 in college student scholarships. Such awards help students pursuing marketing and advertising careers with scholarships to help offset books and tuition.>
