Chariable Peachy and Charity Buzz

There is nothing more important than the work non-profits undertake. We have covered many charities, but now we want you to know about a new innovation in charities.


At charitybuzz, their marketing can be both effective and trend setting. The innovative auctions reach millions on a global basis. 


Their methods ensure successful results through effective collaborative marketing and unsurpassed white-glove service, and they strive to make sure their auctions are as straight-forward and as stress free as possible for the charity partners and for the bidders. Assuming all of the labor-intensive tasks from pre-auction outreach to post event follow-up so that the entire process will be both efficient and effective, they maximize potential revenue. Often high profile lots are sold live at galas and they represent online bidders at these marquis events through the very effective liveBID auction process. 

They work with the top charities and celebrities on the planet, including: 

Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation Mercy Corps Best Buddies International Michael J. Fox Foundation Bette Midler’s New York Restoration Project Musicians On Call Breast Cancer Research Foundation North Shore Animal League Denis Leary Firefighters Foundation Petra Nemcova’s Happy Hearts Fund Diamond Empowerment Fund Rainforest Foundation – U.S. Do Something RFK Center for Justice & Human Rights Dream Foundation Rock the Vote Emeril Lagasse Foundation Rosie’s For All Kids Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation Ross School Habitat for Humanity Russell Simmons’ Rush Philanthropic Jayni & Chevy Chase’s Earth Day Network Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Songwriter’s Hall of Fame Kristen Ann Carr Fund Ted Turner’s Captain Planet LIFEbeat Tony Bennett’s Exploring The Arts Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation The Jorge Posada Foundation Mayor’s Fund to Advance NYC The Paris Review

All non-profits are pressed for time with limited resources and expanded demands. Services are “all inclusive” and span the entire lifecycle of the auction, including: • Overall account production, project and auction management including all auction execution details. • Procurement of lots on a collaborative basis with key celebrities and top corporate sponsors. • Creative design and production of auction shell and comprehensive website consultation. • Credit card authorization, payment collection, fund transfer and bidder qualification to ensure lots close quickly and successfully. • Marketing blitz including targeted email blasts to charitybuzz email subscribers, search engine optimization, and submissions to appropriate blogs, fan sites, social networking sites, and other media outlets. • Lot fulfillment, shipment and complete follow up of all post-auction tasks. • Long term corporate cause marketing strategies to build relationships past the auction lifecycle. • No upfront fees: they only charge a percentage of total funds raised.
