NEED AUCTION ITEMS THAT TURN INTO CASH?
The Pro Players Association provides nonprofits with access to high value collectibles, fine art, sports equipment, consumer electronics, and unique experience packages — all without the time-consuming challenge of soliciting donations from merchants. Every signed memorabilia item we offer is fully authenticated and backed by the authenticators’ guarantee.
Our program is designed to eliminate risk. All items are provided on consignment, with no upfront cost or obligation. You pay only for the items that sell at your event. Our team works closely with you to curate the most effective mix of silent and live auction items tailored to your audience. We also offer professional custom framing, display cases, and engraving services to ensure each item is presented at its highest value — because presentation drives bidding.
For live events, we can provide professional auctioneers from the Colorado Auctioneers Association as well as celebrity Masters of Ceremonies. If you already have an auctioneer secured, we are happy to collaborate — our shared goal is to maximize your fundraising impact. At no cost to you, our knowledgeable staff can attend your event to promote and sell the items directly to your donors. This support consistently increases engagement and revenue. We also handle transportation, setup, and display, removing that burden from your organization.
To expand your reach even further, we now offer online auction events, allowing you to engage donors beyond your in person audience.
You may browse our current collection, item list, and slide presentation at: www.proplayersassociation.org/auction-assistance-program New items are added weekly. If you are looking for something specific, please let us know. For pricing or inquiries, contact the Auction Assistance Program at 303 961 5032 or [email protected].
As an added benefit, once we receive your signed contract, we will promote your event through local media, our website, and our social media platforms to help increase visibility and participation.
A copy of our Auction Assistance Program agreement is attached for your review. For more information about the Pro Players Association and our community impact, please visit www.proplayersassociation.org, where you can also explore our many celebrity “Fun raising” events.
We are proud to serve local, national, and global communities through our fundraising and service initiatives. Thank you for your interest — we look forward to partnering with you to create a successful and memorable event.
