Many guests who attend charity auctions come with their hearts and pocket books open, yet leave without getting the chance to give or feel included in the fundraising process. A big reason for this is because the event isn't inclusive enough, and caters to the small percentage of guests who can afford big ticket items in the live — for everybody else the live auction is just a spectator sport. Your invaluable donors have made an investment in time and money to attend your event, so make sure to include them from start to finish! This webinar will explain how to engage your entire audience during the live event with fun and creative fundraising ideas. Watch the webinar »
