What do we auction besides jerseys and game tickets?
For Athlete & Team Foundations, online auctions that go beyond signed gear with travel and live events.
Athlete & Team Foundations run golf classics and galas with a sports crowd. Signed jerseys and game tickets are familiar, and the same items pull thinner bids each year. The room wants new options like the Kentucky Derby, the US Open, the CMAs, or trips to Italy and France. Online auctions can add those experiences without extra risk.
Athlete & Team Foundations run galas and golf classics for a crowd that follows sports. That crowd has seen every signed jersey and suite night. Travel and live-event experiences give them something new to bid on. The Kentucky Derby, US Open, and Country Music Awards fit the room. Trips to Italy and France do too. These packages come with imagery and descriptions ready to list on any bidding platform.
The scope is simple. Browse over 140 experiences and reserve what fits your room for free. You get a one-page PDF display per experience with details, photos, and videos when available. Set starting bids 15 to 20 percent above cost, so profit starts with the first bid. You only pay for an experience if it sells, keep 100% over the cost, and can sell experiences multiple times if the bidding gets hot. You are not too late: items can be added the same day as your event.
This week, call Giveback XP and pick two or three experiences that fit your gala or golf classic. Browse over 140 options, from the Kentucky Derby and US Open to Italy and France. Reserve them for free and get the marketing PDFs. Tell them your event date and audience size so they can help fine tune the count. Add them to your online auction. You pay only if an item sells, and you can add more the same day as your event.
After the gala, winners send their details and the travel team gets them booked. Donors have up to two years to travel for most trips. You keep the profit from each sold package. If bidding gets hot, the same package can sell more than once. The foundation adds items that match the room and keeps next year fresh.
