Charity Auction FAQ
Here are our answers to some of the many questions we get asked often; all about charity auctions, fundraising events and auction prizes:
1. What is a charity auction?
A charity auction can be a great way to fundraise, either as a standalone event, or as part of a bigger event (such as an annual ball). Putting on an auction can complement other donations and support, allowing people an alternative way to support a cause. They can be a very low-cost and low-risk activity, especially if the auction lots have been donated to the charity to be used. However, as an auction is a way of trading (buying goods or services) there are important things for charities to know to make sure they are following all the rules that are in place.
An auction is a process of buying and selling goods or services by offering them up for bid, taking bids, and then selling the item to the highest bidder or buying the item from the lowest bidder. The open ascending price auction is arguably the most common form of auction in use today.

But it’s also about how they make your guests feel. Your silent auction will be a success, if the items you’ve laid out for auction are valuable to your attendees or offer up a unique experience.
