SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (Billboard Publicity Wire via Business Wire EON) January 29, 2008 -- In Ticketing, the premiere global technology company providing ticketing and e-commerce solutions for music, film festivals, venues, and bands, today announced the appointment of CEO & Founder Steve Weisz to the advisory board of Trees for the Future. Since 1989, Trees for the Future has been helping communities around the world plant trees. Through seed distribution, agroforestry training, and in-country programs, they have empowered rural groups to restore tree cover to their lands. Planting trees protects the environment and helps to preserve traditional livelihoods and cultures for generations. Since 2001, In Ticketing has partnered with Trees for the Future and in 2007, In Ticketing created a program to plant one tree for each ticket sold.

Dave Deppner, founder of Trees for the Future said, “We have been fortunate to have gained the attention and support of Steve Weisz and In Ticketing. Over several years, he and his organization have demonstrated real concern about what is happening to the global environment and, in addition to his financial support – which has made possible the planting of hundreds of thousands of trees - his ideas have been extremely valuable for building and improving our program. Steve is a leader of the business community in California and we share the same goal of addressing climate change and deforestation. As our program grows, and as time grows short to address the threat of climate change, we see the need for a widespread educational program to show people how they benefit by bringing trees back to their degraded lands. Steve’s help will make much of that possible.”

Steve Weisz said, “I am thrilled to be on the advisory board of Trees for the Future. When I first learned about Trees for the Future, I knew In Ticketing could help contribute to their efforts. The results of our partnership have gone beyond all of my expectations and the future is bright as we continue to help plant one tree for each ticket sold. Dave Deppner is a true pioneer and a major influence on In Ticketing. We could not be happier with the relationship and we look forward to helping them achieve their goals and mission.”
