G4 Founder Auctioning Off Rare Network Memorabilia To Fight Homelessness

As the gamer-focused G4 TV nears the end of its days, founder and former CEO Charles Hirschhorn has launched an online auction for memorabilia from the X-Play network’s glory days.

Up for auction are Hirschhorn’s personal collection of items, including a G4 clock, various t-shirts, G4 caution tape, and even G4-branded fuzzy dice. You can see the whole set of items here. The auction wraps up soon, so if you’re interested in bidding, you’ll want to do so right away.

100 percent of proceeds from Hirschhorn’s auction will go to fighting homelessness. Specifically, funds will go to Chrysalis, a nonprofit organization that helps homeless and low-income individuals get the resources they need to get back on track.

Former G4 host Kevin Pereira has recorded a video (above) where he talks about Hirschhorn’s impact on his own life and why you should check out the auction.

G4 will officially go offline November 30. It has not aired any new original programming in quite some time. Though the network is perhaps best known for programs such as X-Play and Attack of the Show!, it most recently aired only re-runs of shows like Cops, Lost, and Ninja Warrior, as well as some movies.
