Meet Your Fundraising Goals with Autographed Memorabilia

charity-3There are all sorts of charity and fund raising events that occur around the country on a daily basis. These events are created to help someone in need or to create revenue for a non-profit organization that lend themselves to helping others, or finding a cure for an illness that inflicts thousands of young children and/or adults, or raise funds for an athletic team or a local non-profit organization.

These great fund raising events use all sorts of great ideas to raise money. Maybe they team up with another company to sell their products and the charity receives a percentage. Or, the event charges an entry fee for a golf tournament or a marathon. Some seek donations from companies to use for silent and live auctions. These are all great ideas that help generate the needed funds that these events and/or individuals need.

AAA Sports Memorabilia has been assisting several of these non-profit organizations for the last several years. Our specialty is autographed sports and entertainment memorabilia.

Almost all professional sports, along with collegiate sports, have experienced a tremendous growth of fans in the last few years. In conjunction with this growth, the collecting of autographed sports memorabilia has grown tremendously. The fans have grown more attached to specific teams and specific athletes. Sports enthusiasts are buying more autographed sports memorabilia to remember their favorite players, the greatest plays, and the greatest games.

By incorporating authentic autographed sports memorabilia into your next fund raising or charity event, you will be adding an additional entertainment aspect for your guests which in turn will add additional revenue for your event. These great autographed collectibles can be used for a silent or live auction, door prizes, or raffles.

What is great about adding autographed memorabilia into your event, is that most sports collectibles companies will provide your event with items that are in high demand, are valuable, and are high-quality. Sports companies should offer a consignment arrangement to showcase autographed memorabilia at your event. By offering the autographed collectibles on consignment, then those items that may not receive a bid, or goes unsold, are typically returned to the company at no charge.

Numerous charities and fund raising events have boosted their attendance and money raised by adding autographed sports and entertainment memorabilia to their line-up. The next time you have a fund raising event, give it a try and see how beneficial it is for you.

Before adding this great idea into your event however, make sure the sports company you hire is legitimate and has a program that is beneficial to you. Make sure their items are authentic and include certificates of authenticity from reputable companies and not by companies that are not well-known.
