03/26/2007
Portland, Ore. - March 26, 2007 - Auctionpay, a leader in fundraising software and service solutions for the nonprofit community, today announced it has launched a professional services group called Auctionpay Event Services. The Event Services group will provide on-site and pre- and post-event support, as well as individual consulting for clients around the nation. The Event Services team will be part of the Client Services group and consist of event consultants experienced in running nonprofit and school auctions. Different service levels will be available.
"Working with thousands of nonprofit organizations for over five years has given us unique insight and experience in how to plan and execute successful fundraising events," said Steve Sterba, Auctionpay CEO and president. "Our clients have consistently asked us to send staff to their events and participate in pre-event strategy meetings. By offering Event Services, we will be able to apply our best practices and experience to help maximize funds raised for their cause."
"Auctionpay has worked with us at our annual Village of Dreams Benefit Gala for the past two years, and really put our staff and volunteers at ease during an extremely hectic event night," said Diane Hufnagle, Development Administrator, Riverview School, East Sandwich, Mass., an Auctionpay customer since 2004. "Their experience and professionalism in training the volunteers around check-in and check-out, was instrumental to the event success. We are very happy customers and we know others will be too."
"Auctionpay helped keep our large gala manageable and hassle free for our guests and volunteers," said Mariann Mullin, Executive Administrator, Andy Roddick Foundation. "With many celebrities in attendance, it was of the utmost importance that everything ran smoothly and Auctionpay assured us of that. We look forward to having them back this year and recommending them to others."
