Why should I have a gold fundraiser instead of a more traditional fundraiser?
It's a fundraising solution that requires little effort or
out-of-pocket expense for your group, and at the same time benefits both the
membership and the organization.
This is the ultimate win-win. The process for testing and assessing gold is fascinating,
one which your members are sure to enjoy. Participants are often shocked at how much
their unwanted gold items are worth.

Exactly how much money will my organization receive?
Your organization will receive 20% of our gross payout at the end of the fundraiser.
The dollar amount generated will be based on what your
members sell and what type of turnout we achieve. Typically a fundraiser will generate $20,000 in payouts
resulting in a $4,000 donation for your cause. Many generate larger payouts, some smaller payouts.
How much will the participants be paid for their items and
how will they be paid?
All attendees will be paid in cash at the current market value
for their gold items. The payout
will be based on the price of gold on the day of the event.

Full details of what we purchase can be found on our
about us page.
Is the donation goldfundraising.com will be making deducted from
the attendees payout?
No. All attendees will receive 100% of the value for their items.
Goldfundraising.com will make its 20% donation from the full gross proceeds.
We are not a registered charity / non-profit. Can we still have an event?
Absolutely. We are happy to serve any organization with a financial need. We've
done many events with homeowner associations, schools and public businesses just to
name a few.
Where can our event be held?
Your event can be held in virtually any space that can
accommodate your members. Our
setup is simple and requires little space.
How much lead time do we need to book an event?
Typical lead time is 2-3 weeks. It will depend on scheduling availability and the manner in
which you would like to promote the event.
Is a gold fundraiser a stand-alone event or can it be
combined with other fundraising?
Our events are great stand alone fundraisers but can also
serve as a wonderful complement to more traditional fundraising. For example, if you also had a silent
auction your members/attendees could use their new found cash to fund silent
auction purchases.
How do we put the event together?
