Link: what is a silent auction
In this format, attendees write down their highest bid for the desired item, and at the end of the predetermined auction period, the highest bid for each item wins. Silent auctions are popular at charity events, galas, and fundraisers because they encourage friendly competition while raising funds for a cause. Bidders have the advantage of evaluating items carefully and strategizing their bids without the pressure of a live auction environment.
Organizers often set minimum bid increments to maintain fair competition. The highest bidder at the end of the auction claims the item by paying the bid amount. Silent auctions are not only an effective way to raise money but also foster a sense of community by bringing people together for a common purpose.
