A large and impressive fundraising event for a very worthy cause

"Having worked with many suppliers over the years on charity events I can say that Galabid by far are the best I have had the pleasure to work with.

The Donna Ann and Melanoma Charity - "We're converted"

In the summer of 2015 the Donna Annand Melanoma Charity ("DAMC”) decided that they were going to go electronic for the auction they were working on for their Charity Ball. With that in mind, they set about finding a company to help. They evaluated four silent auction companies and GalaBid was the one they chose to go with. A spokesperson for the DAMC said "One of the reasons we wanted to work with GalaBid was because we liked the fact that with GalaBid we could use the software ourselves to run the auction.

Team GB Ball Silent Auction

"I was impressed by the functionality of the GalaBid software the moment I saw it and felt that it would be a great fit for the silent auction at the Team GB Ball. This year it was held at the Royal Opera House and we had 500 guests attending. I have used tablet based silent auction systems before but felt the simplicity and the convenience of people bidding on their phones would increase our fundraising revenue. And it did. We achieved our target and we were delighted to see...
