We organized an on-line silent auction for the first time this year as part of our annual fundraising golf tournament, and it was a smash success!Thanks to Events By Sharon and the site provided, folks were able to bid from the comfort of their own home with a computer, or on the run with cell phone in hand! The proxy bidding feature certainly added to the strategy and the fun! Highly recommended.

We recently used the Auction platform by Events By Sharon for a fundraising Art Auction event. The auction site was fantastic and extremely easy to use both from the administration and user end perspective. Sharon was also extremely helpful in getting things set up, meeting our needs and for ensuring our experience was nothing but wonderful. Fantastic experience! CMHA Regina
