Mission of Society Benefits'
Founders
Our mission is to ensure that a Charity Auction provides
interactive
charity auction entertainment, maximum fundraiser profit, and an honest
event where your organization
receives 100% of the total dollars bid at the charity auction.

The J. Taylor

full
10% of all pre-tax corporate revenue from Society Benefits from

Value and
Contribution
Society Benefits' founders are dedicated to consistently living
up to their God-given
higher purposes, encouraging others to achieve beyond their
expectations, and inspiring other businesses to honest, open-market competition
based on integrity, full-disclosure and forthright compliance with the
law and the true spirit of the law in all business dealings.
The Founding Vision of Society Benefits
Society Benefits’ contributions to charity
auctions have revolutionized
the charitable fundraising auction industry by making the following four practices
the accepted norm for charity and benefit auctions:
1. Utilization of the Auction Marketing Method and partnership with a
licensed, professional charity auctioneer
2. Use of the Buyer’s Premium as the most honest and forthright form
charity auctioneer compensation
3. Full disclosure during the charity auction event of the percentage of
charity auction
proceeds retained by the charity
4. An expectation and practice that the charity retain the full 100%
of
dollars bid at the charity auction.
