Our VIP Clients
CHARITY AUCTION
Each year The Tauranga Gala Dinner invites a local charity along to raise funds and awareness via a live auction at the event. This year we are delighted to host Wish 4 Fish as this year's charity recipient.
Wish 4 Fish provide amazing opportunities for people with illness, disability and hardship to partake in specialised fishing and water activities; something that many of us take for granted. Founder and trustee, local man Bryce Dinneen, works tirelessly to raise the funds required to facilitate the program for those with disability.
Wish 4 Fish will auction off a variety of items and experiences at the event, with 100% of the auction proceeds going to their cause. The Tauranga Gala Dinner provides this opportunity risk-free, as we realise the type of event lends itself to being a great platform for an auction to be held, which of course adds an extra element of excitement to the evening as well. The charity auction is run separately from the commercial arm of the event, and all funds will go directly to Wish 4 Fish.
You can now see the auction items listed here.
We are once again indebted to Frank Vosper, from Vosper Realty, for jumping on board to support the charity auction recipient as our auctioneer. Frank, awarded the QSM for services to the community in 2011, works tirelessly for charitable causes and is a huge supporter of Wish 4 Fish.
