Dave Matthews Band is inviting fans to enter a contest to help plant trees around the globe through donations to The Nature Conservancy via The Bama Works Fund.

Having fully funded the planting of a million trees in 2020, Dave Matthews Band is on a mission to plant a million more in an effort to restore healthy forests, curb the effects of climate change, provide clean air and fresh drinking water, and secure homes for thousands of species of plants and animals.

The effort is in support of The Nature Conservancy's Plant a Billion Trees program, a forest restoration effort that will plant trees in the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, China, Kenya and Tanzania.

Donations of $10 (all figures U.S.) or more will earn entries into a contest to win two premium VIP tickets to see Dave Matthews Band at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Nov. 12 and 13, as well as a meet and greet with Matthews, hotel accommodations and round-trip airfare. 

A $10 donation will earn 100 entries and help plant five trees. A $25 donation will earn $250 entries and help plant 12 trees. A $50 donation will earn 600 entries and help plant 25 trees. A $75 donation will earn 750 entries and help plant 37 trees. A $100 donation will earn 1,000 entries and help plant 50 trees. A $250 donation will earn 2,500 entries and help plant 125 trees. A $500 donation will earn 5,000 entries and help to plant 250 trees. – Continue reading Steve McLean’s feature on Samaritanmag.
