Forgot To Include The Live Charity Auction Items In Your Program? Fundraising Auction Schedules Can By: Sherry Truhlar | - Sometimes benefit auction catalogs are misplaced before the live auction begins. Other times a catalog isn't printed.

An Idea For Benefit Auction Donation From A Photographer: Family Photo Party By: Sherry Truhlar | - In most of the silent auctions my company conducts - and occasionally a live auction - at least one of the items will be donated from a photographer.

Creative Live Auction Idea: How To Successfully Sell A Puppy By: Sherry Truhlar | - I love dogs. And I'm not alone -- my town of Alexandra, VA is one of the United State's friendliest dog towns.

Today I drove past a chain link fence with a large sign that read HEAVY EQUIPMENT TRAINING ACADEMY. Bulldozers, dump trucks and other construction equipment sat behind the fence. On the other side of the street was another chain link fence with even more equipment.

If you're not afraid to reach out and you're committed to spending some time on the computer, use your location to turn a cold lead into a warmer one. Sometimes knowing about a possible donation is simply being in the right place at the right time.
