WELCOME TO BIDS FOR BENEFIT
We care about our community. We believe that beautiful things can happen in this world when people work together to help others. This is why we began our sealed-bid auction Easel Program. Through our initiative, we help to connect the public with charities and corporations so everyone can do their part to make the world a better place.
Fundraising can be tough. So we created a new approach that would be creative, fun, and non-invasive. Our goal is to help charity organizations of all sizes at the lowest risk and cost possible for everyone involved. In fact, our easels are free to place at any location, which means there is no risk at all. All our partners have to do is put up our Easels and display some beautiful artwork or some cool sports memorabilia and the benefits will pour in.
100% over the starting bid amount is provided to the designated charity!
Some of our top partners include MADD Halton, United Way, Breast Cancer Society of Canada, Georgian Bay General Hospital Foundation, and Huron Perth Healthcare Alliance. We have raised thousands of dollars for all kinds of charities and causes of all kinds, and this number can only go up from here.

WHAT WE DO
THE EASEL PROGRAM
Through sealed bid auctions on location at our hosting partners, people can bid on the beautiful artwork displayed. The artwork rotates regularly and 100% over the starting bid amount goes to the charity chosen by the hosting location.
LIVE AUCTIONS
We also perform live auctions for those groups who want to do something more. Anthony Wagler has over 23 years of fulltime experience in the auction business and has performed hundreds of fundraising auctions. His humor and style has the gift of getting the most money and support from audiences.
SILENT AUCTIONS
With all of the materials and services provided by us, some partners can choose to host a silent auction where they collect all of the profits. All at no cost, with no risk. Bids For Benefit does it all for you. We supply some or all of the products for your fundraising event, offering products ranging in value from $10.00 up to $10,000.
HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS
Ed, Satisfied Customer
Just a quick note to thank you to let you know the picture arrived bright and early this morning. One reason I particularly liked this picture – I spent eleven full summers at a boys camp in Algonquin Park and canoe-tripped through most if not all of the park. Over the years my children heard so many stories about those summers that in 2011 they took me back to the park on a short canoe trip. I have over 1952 photo scans of one of my Algonquin trips. Obviously, Pointing the Way is a fond reminder of those memories.”
Stratford General Hospital
The Volunteers of Stratford General Hospital have been using the Bids for Benefit – Sealed Bid Auction Easel Program since 2014. We have found the staff at Bids For Benefit more than easy to work with in meeting some of our requirements to be clear and open to our supporters. The program is so simple to use for us as Bids for Benefit does all the actual work and we simply collect our share from the artwork sales.
We highly recommend this firm to assist in the raising of funds on an ongoing basis with this easel program. It has truly been a pleasure getting our checks to put towards all the much needed equipment purchases we support with this program in our Hospital.
Bravo to Bids for Benefit and its Staff!
