Instantly access the Event Fundraising Handbook series, featuring the best industry tips for the 3 major components of any successful charity auction event.
Few fundraisers are more lucrative than charity auctions—or more complex to plan.
Charity auctions, when successful, combine sponsorships, winning bids, ticket sales and special appeals to raise anywhere from $50,000 to $1 million in one night. To raise that kind of money may require more expertise than you'd expect.
Wouldn't it be great having an expert by your side to advise on best practices and suggest hidden opportunities?
