Donating products or services
You can support us by donating goods or services in a number of ways.
- Donate an auction prize for a dinner or a ball and get recognition at the event, helping you to reach new audiences.
- If you are a professional consider donating your skills and experience. If you work in marketing you could help us with our online marketing or if you are an IT expert you could assist with data modelling and analysis.
- Donate items or vouchers for goody bags for our event participants – a great opportunity for product sampling and promotion.
Buy Once Give Twice
Christie's has teamed up with Buy Once Give Twice, meaning you can easily support Christie's more than once!
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
