Hi, we're Raising Paddles, Fundraising Auctioneers and Consultants. Our experienced team of professionals support over 100 nonprofits a year across the country to achieve fundraising goals and create memorable donor experiences. While some clients are still utilizing us for virtual events, most are starting to return to live events for 2022. This past fall, we served 56 events, with 51 non-profits having in-person events, with smashing success!We learned a lot during Covid, and have implemented several best practices that help our clients return successfully to that in-person experience (along with virtual in some cases!).
Come join us for an interactive workshop that is built like a gala. We will register you just like you would for your guests, you will have the opportunity to bid on silent auction and live auction items that you can take home with you for use at your next fundraising event. Of course, the FUN is we will hand you play money to use to bid on these items. And the more you engage, the more play money you can earn to outbid your fellow attendees! It will be fun!
We will also provide an entertainment element during lunch time as we serve you a gorgeous lunch. During breaks, you will get the chance to interact with some of our partners who have sponsored this event to keep our costs down and will also be giving away up to $20,000 in prizes. You might be a lucky winner….. all you need to do is “show-up!”
Can’t attend in-person? Then join us for our virtual workshop instead! We will have this virtual session on February 11th, but you can also watch on demand at a later time. For virtual attendees only, please register here.
