How do we get auction items without leaning on our parent families?

Your families already show up for every gala, walk, and family fun event. They give time, money, and advocacy all year. For adaptive and special needs organizations, the parent community is the heart of the mission. So when the silent auction table needs big-ticket items, it feels wrong to turn to those same families to source them. That is not their role.

Consignment takes the sourcing off your families. Browse over 140 travel and experience packages: bucket-list sporting events like Formula 1 and the US Open, regional college football, Napa, and top destinations like Italy. Reserve any at no upfront cost. You only pay for an experience if it sells, keep 100% over the cost, and can sell experiences multiple times if the bidding gets hot. You are not too late: items can be added the same day as your event. Families come to bid, not to supply.

This week, visit the catalog of over 140 experiences. Reserve a few that fit your audience, bucket-list sports, wine country, international trips. Giveback XP helps you pick the right number for your crowd, with no risk. If something doesn’t sell, you owe nothing. Your parent families get to enjoy the night as guests, not fundraisers.

After your event, you send the winners’ details to the Travel Team, and they handle booking. Your organization keeps the profit above the reserve. The silent auction table is full of items your community wants, and your families got to simply show up and bid. The mission stays front and center.
