Premier Charity Auctioneer for Nonprofit and School Galas
Your annual fundraiser isn't just an event to raise money — it's a moment to raise spirits, build connections, and make giving contagious.
Where Fundraising Meets Fun
As a professional charity auctioneer, I understand that your annual fundraiser is more than just an event; it's a chance to spread joy, connect your donors to your mission, inspire giving, and have a little fun! Whether it’s a school gala, nonprofit benefit auction, or foundation fundraising event, I bring a mix of integrity, creativity, and professionalism to make sure your event is one to remember.

The Children's Center
“I couldn’t imagine working with anyone other than Libby. I’m with a nonprofit that works with veterans and first responders with PTSD, so the people we help have heavy, difficult stories to share. But this is Libby’s genius! She knows how to balance these hard stories with hopeful, energetic, and forward-focused messaging. She gets the crowd excited about the cause they came to support and helps the donations flow! Plus, she’s excellent with brainstorming and strategic consulting leading up to the event.”
