WIN FREE PISTONS VS. SUNS TICKETS FROM "PASS IT ON" ONLINE AUCTIONS NEW CHARITY GETS THE BALL ROLLING WITH TICKET GIVEAWAY FOR MARCH 3 GAME REGISTER AT PASSITONLINE.ORG TO WIN

PHOENIX - Phoenix Suns fans will get a chance to win one of four pairs of tickets to the March 3 Detroit Pistons vs. Phoenix Suns game when one of the hottest teams in the NBA hosts the defending champions at America West Arena, brought to you by XTRA Sports 910 and a new online charity auction site - PASSITONLINE.ORG.

The organization is being recognized during the game by the Phoenix Suns and Southwest Airlines Community Outreach Program. The tickets will be given away during the March 3 Bickley & MJ morning show.

Pass It On plans to break through the clutter with a unique philosophy toward Internet bidding by allowing buyers to purchase normal to unique household items and clothing from the closets of a variety of celebrities spanning the worlds of sports and entertainment. Look for celebrity auctions to begin by April 2005.

The goal of "Pass It On" and www.passitonline.org, is to offer celebrities a philanthropic outlet for items that would traditionally end up at a garage sale, the thrift store or forgotten in the attic, closet, or under the bed.

PIO takes things such as high-fashion attire, sporting goods, electronics, household items, small kitchen appliances, other clothing and more, and provides a hassle-free way of picking them up from the celebrity or a representative. Those items are then authenticated, displayed and sold through online auctions. The celebrity benefits through tax deductions and the chance to profile and raise money for his or her charity of choice.

Fans benefit by obtaining quality items used by their favorite athletes, actors and performers, which can provide a unique insight into the private lives of those stars. Everyone wins when the proceeds benefit those in need worldwide.

"At Pass It On, we believe in the philosophy that when you pass on to others kindness, love and generosity, the universe conspires to bless you in return, thus completing the cycle of blessing," said president and CEO Stefanie Beeth. "Our mission is simple. We are called to help bring this cycle of blessing to others by providing a vehicle to bring celebrities, communities, and charities together, and giving all of our effort to supporting worthy causes."

Pass It On is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. The organization plans to recognize a "Celebrity of the Month via its "Inside the Closet ofÿ" feature. This feature offers fans an opportunity to gain a sneak peak into a celebrity¡¦s closet and provides a platform for the person to show the world why they are passionate about a certain philanthropic project or organization.
