Special Feature:Fundraising Challenges For
Non-Profit Organizations
Nonprofit organizations of all kinds have always faced the dual challenges of fundraising and building their memberships. In recent years these challenges have become even more complex and daunting, driven by a number of factors:- Increased competition
- Deeper cut-backs in government support
- Businesses are moving budget from philanthropy to advertising sponsorship
- Changing donor base
- Donors are being bombarded
- More savvy consumers
Among the many methods of raising funds is the one-day, one-location charitable auction. Charity auctions are an enjoyable, competitive, time-tested fundraising tool that also enhance a sense of community and promote cause awareness.More than 300,000 non-profit auctions are held annually in the United States, raising between $6 and $9 billion a year. In doing so, they draw monies from the discretionary spending of participants and don't bite into the charity giving budgets of individuals.
