Are you a charity looking for new ways to raise funds? Then perhaps ring to find out more about our Mini Edition?
The Mini has been priced to suit the budget of the charity fundraiser for ongoing campaigns and the more grown up Mini Edition Plus has been priced to provide our full standard product for limited period campaign for auction previews or short fundraisers prior to a major fundraising ball or event.
Most recently we provided the Mini Edition platform for the Mark Davies Injured Riders Fund who realised a final bid of £7,366 for a chance to be on the set of the latest Harry Potter film.
We have worked with charitable organisations on a range of projects from web based auction websites. The following provide some very good examples of our work in this area:
- Mark Davies Injured Riders Fund
- Buy Once Give Twice Charity Auction website
- James Allen Girls’ School fundraising art auction
- Optimist World
Working with Buy Once Give Twice we have created many fundraising micro site campigns on their auction website. A couple of good examples can be seen here:
Are you a brand wishing to associate yourselves with a charity or fulfill your social and corporate responsibilities? Do you have products or services you wish to donate to charity, rather than consigning to the ’special offers’ bucket?
By donating products and services to charities, you provide an alternative means of fundraising. The combined popularity of your brands and awareness can be used to sell these items via online auction on both the brand’s and the charity’s website. Rather than charities asking the corporate sector to make straight forward cash donations online charity auctions provide a means for charities to raise funds in a different way.
How does it work?
- Brands donate items for sale by adding them to the charity’s online auction market place
- Users find the items for sale at the brands website when they are shopping online. This page can be co-branded.
- These items also appear for sale on the charity’s website as items for sale by auction
- Users can either ‘purchase now’ or bid for the item in an auction
The benefits:
- The charity gains a cash donation.
- The shopper gets something they want.
- Buyers get the chance to pick up a bargain whilst also donating to the charity.
- The brand feels good about themselves for donating to charity and of course gains bonus points in the eyes of the shopper for excercising their corporate and social responsibilities.
What are we offering?
We have a range of online auction system packages that can be tailored to match your requirements. We can create an auction site that fully integrates with the charity’s brand as well as the providing a branded page for those companies donating items for sale.
What could be donated to the charities?
- Corporate tickets to sporting events
- End of line stock items & products that may usually be consigned to the bargain bucket
- Memberships to gyms or clubs
- Holidays
- Tickets for concerts
- High value fashion items and jewelry
- Cars
