Question of the week: "Are items I buy at my charity's auction tax deductable?"

Thought for the week: "If you plan to raise less money by downsizing or postponing your event, you will not be disappointed when that happens. However, those that depend on what you raise for their needs and services will be. Starting over or rebuilding is always more difficult than improving on what you already have, so don't set yourself up to fail by making radical changes to a system that may already be working well." - Jay Fiske, Auction Consultant

If I weren't so impressed with what you do for an organization, your professionalism, and the efficient machine that you have created to run an event - I wouldn't be there. But, I am and I know the benefit that you offer. And of all of the agencies that I've worked for their mission and cause is worthwhile and I'm happy to bring whatever resources I have to help them .... and that would be you! - Jeannie Winton, Development Manager

"Hiring NWBA to assist with our auction was one of the best decisions I have made and the best investment. Joan was more than a pleasure to work with and it seemed like every time I had a question she was right there to pick up her phone to help (at all hours). Both Kim and Joan were such assets in training our volunteers and when things seemed to get hectic, they continued to remain "even keel" which calmed me at the same time. I don't know what we would have done without them. I look forward to working with them next year."

"We wanted to gross $55,000. but we ended up grossing over $81,000! Dana and I worked hard, but we heard nothing but kudos for your performance as well. We've had the most horrible run of bad auctioneers for the past 4-5 years, but even seasoned auction goers had praise for you. So thank you so much. We raised 105% on the Live portion of the Auction -- that was all you." - K.I., Cedar River Montessori School

"The Big Book of Benefit Auctions is a cogently written and meticulously researched tool for both the up-and-coming and well-established fundraiser. It lays out in precise detail the steps necessary to execute a fiscally successful auction, but is sure to include tips on what's most important to the auction attendee - creating an engaging, fun atmosphere. Anyone equipped with this text will become a better auctioneer, and not just of the charitable variety."
