Socially Funded

Has your non-profit ever been burned by a silent auction company ? Were you not paid your fair share of the proceeds or not at all ? Were the items overpriced for your audience ? Did you have to pay monthly fees ? If you answered yes to any of these questions , you need to get in touch with Zach Abel who started a fundraising company called Socially Funded .

With over 100 fundraisers already aided in the Tampa Bay area , Zach is here to
help charities in the Orlando community . Socially Funded is the only volume-based silent auction fundraising organization in Florida who owns all its inventory . That means that your donors get a better deal and your organization raises more money .
Unfortunately , negative experiences happen in the non-profit community all the time , and Zach created Socially Funded to help change the industry . Don ’ t let a bad experience get in the way of raising more money for your charity ! That ’ s why Socially
Presents the All-Inclusive , Faith-Based , 3 Day / 2 Night , Bahamas Paradise
Funded presents a check at the close of each event , so the charity doesn ’ t have to worry about not getting their fair share .
I ’ m asked by charities often : ‘ Why should we use your help when we collect 100 % of the proceeds for our donated items ?’ The answer is simple : You will ALWAYS raise more money for your cause by including all of your donated items AND Socially Funded items to enhance it . Charities do not get quality memorabilia donated in any quantity . It ’ s a fact . Gift baskets and gift cards are not enough . You need variety and a more diverse presentation to raise the most money .

Do you use mobile bidding or paper bidding ? At the end of the day , it really doesn ’ t matter . We can handle all of the work for you and still run your auction from start to finish . Hire a professional to take care of the silent auction , so you can spend more time getting butts in the seats and more sponsorships .
Also , don ’ t let imposters fool you . A memorabilia or golf planning company is NOT a fundraising company . Companies like those charge full retail , outrageous prices , and rarely own their own inventory . Socially Funded ONLY helps with fundraisers . That means you ’ ll get the best service , reliability , selection and lowest starting bids in the industry . If you want your auction run from start to finish without paying any fees , Socially Funded can help . Items can also be provided to enhance what you already have and there is no obligation , no shipments , or hidden fees .
Raising the most money for your charity is the most important aspect of fundraising . Don ’ t let past negative experiences get in the way of working with a company that gives the charity their fair share and has been invested in the local community for years . Call , text or email Zach so he can help take your next event to another level . If you don ’ t have an event , ask about our online option for fundraising . Like our events , it ’ s free .
