Banquets & Award Dinners for Disease Research & Patient Charities

Auction experiences that fit shorter programs and smaller rooms. Browse over 140 travel packages, reserve what you like for free, and pay only for what sells.

Banquet hall filled with guests at round tables

Bucket-list sporting events, Napa getaways, and top international trips like Italy are what move your room. Formula 1, the Kentucky Derby, and the US Open show up, get bids, and sell above cost. These sit alongside walks and runs in your calendar, so packages fit shorter programs and smaller rooms without slowing the evening down.

Your donors are big-time spenders who bid with heart. They come because the cause is personal. That changes what sells and how the room feels. Consignment travel packages fill your catalog without another donation ask, and the same package can sell more than once when bidding gets hot.

The cost depends on how many experiences you reserve. You browse over 140 options and reserve what you like for free. 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. Most packages sell 30 to 50 percent above cost. You are not too late: items can be added the same day as your event.

You start by picking experiences that fit your crowd. Marketing materials, a one-page display per item, and a support email come with each one. After your event, you send the winner details and a Travel Team books the trip. Donors have up to two years to travel, except for event-based dates like the Kentucky Derby which are for that year.

Your auction closes with new money in the room and no leftover inventory. Winning bids above fair market value are generally tax deductible, which matters to your donors. The travel logistics sit with someone else, so your team goes back to the mission.
