Throughout the year, Premiere Networks-syndicated personalities Johnjay Van Es and Rich Berra -- hosts of The Johnjay & Rich Show, gave back with their #LOVEUP charity, which focuses on children living in foster care, and Johnjay and Blake Van Es' pet project, #LOVEPUP, which re-homes dogs at no cost to the adoptive family. The duo held their annual #LOVEPUP Family Fest this past weekend featuring a day full of music, food and puppies at Vertuccio Farms on November 9.
Attended by 7,000 to 10,000 listeners, #LOVEPUP family fest welcomed dog rescues from all over Arizona, who found forever homes for nearly all of their adoptable pets. The special event also featured musical performances by Country star Austin Burke, Shinedown and The Rich Berra Band.
The brainchild of Johnjay Van Es, #LOVEPUP Family Fest brought hundreds of thousands of dollars in non-spot revenue to participating stations. The event has expanded to other markets including Dallas, Colorado, Georgia and Portland with great success.
