Sunshine On A Ranney Day 2023 Gala

This is a highlights video of the Evening of Sunshine GALA 2023 for Sunshine On A Ranney Day. This is a nonprofit which refurbishes rooms and homes of children and young people with special needs. The night was energetic and generous at many levels. All of the live auction items went for over their retail value, like WAY over. The Last Hero Game was great fun, especially when a generous patron raised the 'next' level of $200 to $5000.

Ser Familia 2023

This is a condensed video of my fundraising for Saborea 2023 held by the Metro Atlanta based nonprofit Ser Familia. I was asked to be the Emcee and fundraiser for their Gala with about a week and a half to go before the big night. We quickly employed my tried and true methods of fundraising, passing on a live auction and opting for a fund a need and a Last Hero Game. We had a great time during the Last Hero which netted more than $10,000.00

GIGI'S PLAYHOUSE TINLEY PARK 2023

This is a highlights video of the Ten Year Anniversary Gala for Gigi's Playhouse, Tinley Park in the Chicagoland area. I highlight what's important about opening remarks, why bidspotters help during the fund a need, what a treasure purse is and a paddle drop. All of these fundraising tools lead to more funds in unconventional ways.

Boys and Girls Club VA

Six Thousand Dollars for a dozen cupcakes! It's one of the highlights of the annual auction for the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Greater Virginia Peninsula. It's my great honor to be the benefit auctioneer for this wonderful nonprofit, even more so because as a kid, the Boys Club of South San Francisco was a safe haven for me, my brothers and our friends.
