At Your Charity Auction, we keep things simple with a four step process built to help you succeed without the headache.
Step One: Create your free account
Any group, cause, or organization that needs to raise money can get started. Most nonprofits begin with a big heart and a strong mission, but funding is often the hard part. This is where you begin. Set up your free account and receive your own free auction website so you can get moving right away.
Step Two: Get personal guidance
After you create your account, a consultant will call you and walk you through the whole process from start to finish. No guesswork and no wondering what comes next. Most folks would rather spend time serving their mission than planning events, and we respect that. Your consultant shows you what to do, when to promote, and where to share your auction based on real experience. You are not left figuring this out alone.
Step Three: Choose your auction items
Your consultant helps you pick the items for your auction. You will have access to over 100 ready to use items, and you can also add your own. Local business gifts, special experiences, signed items, or service packages all work great. You can keep it close to home or go bigger. There are also popular options available like trips, experiences, sports items, home goods, food baskets, decor, and tech items. Plenty to choose from and something for every kind of bidder.
Step Four: Launch and invite your supporters
Now it is time to open the doors. You invite your supporters to register and get ready to bid. People enjoy supporting a cause they care about, and auctions give them a fun way to do it. Once bidding starts, the excitement builds and your supporters get to compete for items they really want while helping your mission at the same time.
Payment of collected funds is quick and easy, just the way it should be. Once your auction closes, Your Charity Auction sends your check within about 10 days, so you are not left waiting and wondering. You can move forward with your plans and put those funds to good use right away. And when you are ready, you can roll right into another auction and keep the support coming in.

When you combine both, your auction offers a strong mix of choices that makes it easy for your community to join in and participate.
