9/11 💔 It's a date that still hits hard, no matter how many years pass. The images, the stories… they stay with us. Today, on #PatriotDay, it's not just about remembering the loss; it's about honoring the strength we found that day. That spirit of community, of resilience, that's what we need to carry forward. And #fundraising? It's a way to do something with that spirit. It's not just about the money. It's about coming together and showing support for those who serve and for the causes that make our country stronger. A silent auction is one way to do that. It's fun, gets people involved, and can raise serious funds. Think items that acknowledge our heroes, experiences that celebrate community... that's what makes it unique. Silent Auction Pro can help make it happen, taking the stress out of the logistics so you can focus on the meaning. This Patriot Day, let's turn remembrance into action. See how Silent Auction Pro can help you do so: #neverforget

If December 3rd isn’t marked on your calendar, here’s why it should be 👇 Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity that unites people worldwide to do good. It’s a dedicated 24 hours during which individuals, communities, and organizations come together to support causes they care about through donations and acts of kindness. So, what does that mean for your nonprofit? It's the perfect time to rally your community and raise funds, as people are already in the giving spirit after the holiday season.

How many items should your live auction have? Typically I sell about 5 live auction items, but today I'm working on a live auction for a private school...with 19 terrific items! It's common for schools to have longer live auctions because they have such a deep pool of committed and connected donors (parents), so getting great items can be easier. "But doesn't selling 19 items take too long?" you might be thinking. That depends totally on the structure of the evening and its goals. In some parts of the country, fundraising auctions have 30 or even 50 items! 3 things make longer auctions successful: 1) the guests know in advance what to expect that night 2) the items are exciting and in demand 3) the auctioneer entertains even those who aren't bidding. So, how many live auction items are you seeing at events this season?
