Galas & Benefit Dinners for Disease Research & Patient Charities

Bucket-list experiences sell in this room. Formula 1, the Kentucky Derby, and the US Open. Napa trips and top spots like Italy. These are the packages your crowd bids on. They push past fair market value. That matters because winning bids above that value can be tax deductible for the donor. Your room has big-time spenders. The catalog should give them something worthy of that.

A health charity gala is not the same as a school auction. Your donors are connected personally. They see the mission up close. So the ask feels different. Standard raffle items do not match the mood. And the same three local gift cards get old fast. Walk committees tap the same businesses every year. Consignment lets you bring in fresh packages with zero donor fatigue.

There is no fee to reserve experiences. Browse over 140 options and pick what fits. You only pay for an experience if it sells. Keep 100 percent over the cost. Start bids at 15 to 20 percent above cost. Profit from the very first bid. Packages sell for 30 to 50 percent above cost in this kind of room. And you can sell the same package more than once if bidding stays hot. Add items last minute, even the day of your event.

Pick your experiences and reserve them for free. You get a one-page PDF display for each, with details and photos. A marketing email arrives with helpful hints. At the event, the packages sell. Afterward, send winner details to the Travel Team. They book the trips. Donors get up to two years to travel for non-event items. Event-based trips, like the Derby, are for that year. Giveback XP handles it from there.

Your catalog fills up without another donation call. The night runs smooth. Winners get trips they remember. You keep the profit and protect donor relationships. The worries below have their own answers.
