These energetic kittens show us how to have a good time with a simple disco ball and some sunlight! Shiny distractions can be a lot of fun, and fundraising events are no exception.

As you plan your gala or benefit, you’ll want to find the right balance of dazzling delights and focused attention on the part of your donors to make the most of your event. Too many distractions and you’ll never get their full attention when you need it most, while not enough fun means they’ll be restless and ready to leave. If you plan your event well, however, your guests will hit their bliss point right when your professional benefit auctioneer asks them to give to your organization.

And that, in a disco ball nutshell, is how you have a successful fundraising auction.
