Charity Auction

Buy Once Give Twice

Major charity auction events are elegant, extravagant, exciting occasions. The lots – large and small – are luxurious, lavish and indulgent. Sometimes they’re absolute one-offs.

After the event some buyers can’t redeem their purchases. Buy Once Give Twice gets buyers to re-donate such items and re-sells them, for charity, via the web. Charities and corporate and individual supporters also donate new items to the site, direct.

In a nutshell, it’s a top-quality, full-time, online charity auction. It’s great for buyers (there are some truly lovely things for sale), and it’s a really lucrative fund-raiser: for very little effort, charities take 90% of the net proceeds* paid for any item.

Charities Trust, which in itself is a charitable organisation dedicated to maximising giving, handle the payment of items and disbursement of proceeds to charities, for which a maximum of 4%, including credit card charges, is levied. The net proceeds are then divided with 90% going to the designated charity, and 10% towards the running costs of www.buyoncegivetwice.co.uk.
