Take Your Auctions Online
September 22nd 2008
Many non-profit organizations host an auction with golf tournament fundraisers, and whenever I hear of one of these auction / golf tournament fundraisers I usually ask if they’re conducting the auction online along with a live auction event.
The response is usually the same; they’re conducting a live auction but not an online auction. I think this is a big missed opportunity and I highly recommend any non-profit organization, as well as high school and college athletic programs consider the increased audience they gain with alumni and other supporters who could place bids when the athletics program positions their auction online as well as conducting a live auction.

NASCAR President Donates Harley
May 11th 2006
Last week, NASCAR President Mike Helton donated and auctioned off a 2006 Harley motorcycle to benefit the Sam Ard Silent Auction.
You can read more about Helton’s donation, the Auction and Ard here.
NASCAR seems to always go out of its way to stay connected with its fans, and to assist communities, people and youth whenever possible.
Another example is driver Carl Edwards who partnered with the National PTA and Home Depot for a youth health and wellness program. You can click here to read more about the program.
