Fundraising Auctioneer

Over 100 non-profit organizations served!  Over 200 fundraising events supported!

I've been serving non-profit organizations and educational institutions as a fundraising auctioneer since 2015 and this has been the best career choice I've ever made.  Fundraising with the non-profit organizations and educational institutions at the heart of our communities is the perfect combination of my passion for social justice, my professional fundraising skills learned from working in the non-profit sector and as an event planner, my lifelong love of the stage, and my talent for public speaking. 

When we work together leading up your fundraising auction, you can expect a hands-on approach.  In our pre-event meetings we'll discuss:

• The silent auction.
• Fundraising auction games and activities for your reception.
• Key staff and volunteer roles at a benefit auction.
• Referrals to trusted, highly skilled, charity auction vendors.
• The run-of-show, your key stakeholders that should appear on stage, and effective messaging.
• Utilizing your floor plan and decor to create the best guest experience and the proper structure to support your event's needs.

• The raise-the-paddle (also known as the special appeal or fund-a-need).  We'll work together to craft a compelling narrative as well as a fundraising strategy that utilizes plants, matches, and incentives to maximize giving.
• The live auction.  We'll work together to build a procurement list that reflects your organization's values and the interest of your donors, strategize how to sell items for the best value, and order the live auction for maximum impact and momentum.
