Why this package wins for nonprofits
The Colosseum. Trevi Fountain. Trastevere's cobblestone streets. Rome is the auction package that moves paddles because it's the trip every traveler has on their list—and it's here, tonight, ready to fund your mission. Your winners will stand in the Roman Forum where emperors once walked, choose between an after-hours Catacombs tour with Santa Maria Maggiore access or a guided Colosseum experience with Arena Access, or explore Rome's food culture on a Golf Cart Food Tour through the city's most authentic neighborhoods. This is consignment, so your nonprofit pays nothing upfront. The reserve is $3,495. Every single dollar above that—$3,496, $4,000, $5,500, whatever the room bids—goes directly to your cause. No risk. No upfront cost. Just pure fundraising power wrapped in one of the world's most iconic cities.
The experience your winner walks into
Your winners arrive in Rome and settle into one of four carefully selected hotels: Hotel Artemide, Hotel Forum, Rome Times, or The Glam—four nights of accommodation in the heart of the Eternal City. On their first full day, they step into history: either they descend into the Catacombs for an evening tour followed by after-hours access to Santa Maria Maggiore's grandeur, or they book the Colosseum with Arena Access plus Roman Forum and Palatine Hill exploration, walking the stones where gladiators fought and senators debated. If they're hungry for a different kind of adventure, the Golf Cart Food Tour winds through Rome's neighborhoods, tasting and discovering the city street by street. Between excursions, they wander Trastevere's charming cobblestone streets, toss a coin into Trevi Fountain, and chase the collision of ancient history and present-day Roman life. Every moment is theirs to savor—no flights, no transfers to arrange, just the trip, perfectly set up and waiting.
