Partner With Us
In addition to hosting charity auctions for nonprofit organizations, Gavel&Grand partners with industry leaders—from top brands and publications to personalities and tastemakers—to develop auctions of extraordinary experiences and luxury items.
These partnerships allow brands to support causes that they hold dear while connecting with their communities, as well as our global audience, in a new model that drives revenue and exposure, plus builds brand awareness.
We've worked with taste-making companies from Swarovski to Design Within Reach to create marquee auctions that support meaningful causes, underscore each brand's story, and introduce them to Gavel&Grand's global audience.
