Feeling stuck? Run your organization through these four questions.

1. Where are we now?
2. Where do we want to be?
3. How could we get there — if time, money, and people were unlimited?
4. How will we get there, with the real constraints back in?

Elise makes the case that question #3 is where the breakthroughs live. Solutions hide behind fear and scarcity. Take the limits off for 30 minutes and you'll surprise yourself.

Meet Brett Higgins, a Phoenix-based charity auctioneer who spends more than 220 nights a year on stage helping nonprofits raise more for the causes they serve. From intimate luncheons to large-scale galas, organizations across Arizona and the country trust Brett to turn their event into a night people actually remember.

His clients say it best: the moment Brett takes the stage, the room changes. He brings the rare mix of heart, clarity, and just enough humor to keep donors leaning in and giving generously, start to finish. He's not just a guy with a mic, he's a true partner who plans with your team long before the doors open. We're proud to call Brett one of the auctioneers we love.

When a nonprofit starts planning their gala around ONE person's calendar, you know that person is special.

Meet Chris Hensley, a Chicago-based award-winning charity auctioneer who has helped hundreds of nonprofits turn their galas into record-setting nights. One organization has trusted him with 14 of their events and now schedules around his availability. Another raised nearly a MILLION dollars more from one year to the next after Chris took the mic.

His secret? He treats your mission like his own. Chris digs into your cause before the event, builds the strategy with your team, and then brings the energy, heart, and fun that makes guests feel great about giving.

We're proud to call Chris one of the auctioneers we love. If you've got a gala or benefit event on the horizon, he's exactly the kind of pro who changes what your night brings in.

Most fundraisers take weeks to gain traction...this one took a day.
$1,000 raised on day one of the Golden Ticket Raffle, on the way to $10,000 by the time it closed. Our founder Trevor tells the whole story.
Easy setup, zero upfront cost, and momentum from the jump. That's the point.

Running a July event? Here's a way to raise more without spending more.
Our travel packages cost your nonprofit nothing until they sell at your event and right now we're taking $250 off any package over $2,495 for July events. That's $250 straight onto your bottom line.
Travel packages consistently outperform physical auction items because bidders compete over experiences, not stuff. Lower your cost, raise more money!

One package. $15,000 net.
Holly Cunningham-Kizer at Hays-Caldwell Women's Center ran the Golden Ticket Raffle two ways: raffled it for $10,000, then auctioned the package for another $10,000.
Two revenue streams. One package. Zero upfront cost.
This is what we mean when we say HGA helps nonprofits raise more money.

One trip. A different fundraising format.

Instead of one winning bid, a Golden Ticket can turn a single prize into a capped run of ticket sales and one live drawing at the event. The example math: 100 tickets at $100 each = $10,000 gross revenue.

A simple concept that can stack on top of your auction night.
