Zan Auctions is the Future of Fundraising

We have raised over $100 Million at In Person, Virtual and Hybrid events.

Our mission is to create more donors, and create more good in the world, with people just like you.

Welcome To Zan Charity Auctions

Our goal is to help you surpass your benefit auction fundraising expectations.

Based in Southern California, our benefit auctioneers travel across the United States providing extensive pre-event consultation that leads to record breaking charity auctions. We cover everything from Z to A, meaning we start at the end with your goals, and work backwards making sure that we have the right Live Auction items, purpose for the Fund-A-Need, and provide you with the right revenue enhancers.

Naturally, you need to have an awe inspiring fundraiser. Watch your donors rolling in laughter, as the grand total climbs.

What people are saying:

Thank you so much for Saturday night and all of your hard work. The feedback has been amazing and people loved what you did, thought you were entertaining, feisty, fun and had a lot of energy. Best auctioneer we’ve ever had! Thank you and hopefully we will see you again next year!

Everybody had a blast last night and we were in the numbers we are usually which is really fantastic. Our crowd enjoyed the positive energy Zan brought on stage. You did a very good job. I strongly feel your personality is a very good match to our crowd.

Zan Auctions makes your not-for-profit event exciting, fast & fun!

Envision the elation you'll feel after the last item is sold, and you know you blew the roof off of this event. My gift to you is to make this dream come true. Each year we raise millions of dollars for great causes just like yours.

Throughout Southern California and across the United States, our team is ready to provide your organization with:

Strategic charity pre-auction consulting on all aspects of your live and silent auction.
Energetic and engaging live auctioneering
Results-driven silent auction promotion
Game & Raffle Announcements
Emcee/Master of Ceremonies
“Fund-A-Need/Special Appeal” expertise.
Volunteer training.
Unlimited access via email and phone to experienced auctioneers.

The reality is that these events don't happen by chance, hope or luck. They happen with specific strategies, for one spectacular event.

As a Licensed Auctioneer, BAS Benefit Auctioneer Specialist, and a member of the National Auctioneers Association, Zan Aufderheide will maximize your charity donations and keep your audience entertained.
