The "Free I.P." volunteer program originated at Virgin Mobile FreeFest last
August and was also part of Lady Gaga's earlier tour. The initiative gives
concert fans the chance to receive tickets in exchange for volunteer hours
at local homeless youth organizations throughout the country. This past
summer, the "Free I.P." program at FreeFest generated more than 30,000 hours
of community service by concert-goers. To date Virgin Mobile has given away
hundreds of tickets through the Free I.P. program as part of the Lady Gaga tour.
