[VIDEO] 5 popular items for charity auction gift bags

Sherry Truhlar Leave a Comment

If you’ve got a hankering to hand out gifts to your guests, you might be stumped on what to give.  Sometimes a sponsor dictates what will be given, but other times the ball is in your court.

I prefer gifts which are unique and mission-specific in some way.  And for sponsor-dictated gifts, I’d hope that the item is useful or memorable; ideally something that drives business to the sponsor.

I can’t say that all the items in today’s video fit that criteria, but these are popular items.

It’s the five most common gifts I see offered to guests attending a charity auction.

For more ideas, here’s a list of previous blog posts on this same topic.
