Eric has been featured nationally and internationally in the major broadcast media, as he champions creating sustainable solutions to end homelessness.
The Million Pixel March
The Off the Streats campaign is selling 1 Million pixels of advertising space, for individuals and firms to feature their personal photographs or corporate logos onto a vinyl film to be applied to the dome shelter and a huge billboard. This extraordinary advertising promotion will be witnessed by millions around the globe. The purchased pixels will also become a saleable poster. Pixel prices start at $100, providing participants a 100 pixel size.
The Donation Option
This campaign is a historical undertaking. Those who do not buy pixel space are encouraged to make donations. This can be done online at the Off the Streats website, or by sending a check to Global Flying Hospitals, 4400 PGA Blvd. Suite 600, Palm Beach Gardens. FL 33410
