Banquets & Award Dinners for Children’s Charities & Youth Advocacy
Auction items that fit community-minded donors and fill your evening without asking local businesses again.

Children’s charities and youth advocacy groups see the best results with travel packages that feel both exciting and attainable. Major sporting events like the Kentucky Derby and Formula 1, private villas in destinations such as Italy, Greece, and Costa Rica, and regional experiences routinely draw bids. These items fit the board-driven, community-minded donor base at your mid-size galas, breakfast fundraisers, and luncheons. Because they are consignment, you only pay for what sells, and you can add them even the day of the event.
Your audience is board-driven and community-minded. They give because they care about your mission, not for show. Local businesses in your area are asked for donations by every group, so the same gift cards and baskets appear at every event. Travel packages let you add something new without another donation ask. The format of your event, whether a breakfast, luncheon, or mid-size gala, has a shorter program. Auction items need to be easy to understand and quick to bid on. Consignment travel packages fit that timeline.
There is no cost to reserve experiences. You pay only if an item sells, and you keep 100% over the cost. A starting bid of 15 to 20% above cost builds profit from the first bid. If interest is high, you can sell the same package more than once. The number of items you need depends on your audience size and event format. A breakfast fundraiser might use a few, while a larger gala can support more. You can add items last minute, even the day of the event.
You browse the list of experiences and reserve what fits your event. Giveback XP sends you a one-page display sheet per experience with photos, videos, and details, plus a marketing email to help you promote the auction. At your event, you present the items during your program. After the event, you send the winning bidders’ details to the Travel Team, and they handle booking. Donors have up to two years to travel for most experiences, or until the event date for specific ones like the Kentucky Derby.
Your gala or breakfast now has auction items that match your donors’ interests. You added them without another donation ask. The process was straightforward, and you only paid for what sold. Your fundraising total increased, and your guests left with something to look forward to.
