The Environmental Research & Education Foundation’s (EREF) Annual Charitable Auction will be held at WasteExpo in Las Vegas once again. The two-day event, held April 24-25, will consist of live and silent auctions as well as a networking reception.

Last year’s auction raised more than $1.9 million to fund scientific research and educational initiatives, and the auction has successfully raised $18 million since it began 24 years ago.

Proceeds from the auction will go toward the four core programs of the foundation: research grants, data and policy, scholarships and education. Participants can place bids for the silent auction on their mobile devices from 10:00 a.m. on April 24 until 3:30 p.m. on April 25.   

In addition, the live auction will take place beginning at 3:30 p.m. on April 25, where larger items will be sold by a professional auctioneer. The live auction will be preceded by an open bar reception at the EREF booth #4326.
