“Chad you were a marvel! Absolutely awesome! Everyone I spoke to after the event, if they commented on one thing — it was you! Glowing reports and enthusiasm for your presentation and methods – the people who you got to give thought you were amazing! Really great, and yes indeed eye-opening to what a difference you can create and how you get the money flowing!! Thank you so very much from the bottom of our hearts and the pit -a-pat of happy little feet and wagging tails! Absolutely we want to sign you up for next year’s MILOFEST 2! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!”

Lynne Tingle, Executive Director/Founder
MILO Foundation“You are the best Auctioneer I have seen! The phenomenal success of 40 Years of Living Legends is a reflection on your Auctioneer skills and the time you spent preparing and coaching The Redwoods’ staff and volunteers. I have attended other auctions, but you were exceptionally good at pacing the fundraising with the audience’s willingness to participate.
As you know, this is the first time The Redwoods has used an Auctioneer. It was a pleasure to watch how you successfully transported the guests from the video and table conversation to a lively auction and Fund A Need. The evening would not have been as successful without your hard work and dedication.
I have heard nothing but praise about the evening and your flawless execution of the auction. Many of the Rock the Ages performers said you took time to talk to them about the auction which they really appreciated.
Congratulations on a memorable event. Our revenue from the evening exceeded our expectations and I’m enormously grateful for your contribution to that event’s success!”

The Redwoods, Senior Community, Mill Valley
Barbara Solomon, Chief Executive Officer“I’m pleased to report that our Outreach Fund raised more than double of what we hoped! We had gone into the evening with very low key expectations, but thanks to your leadership, we were able to inspire people to great levels of generosity. You were spot on in reading the crowd and figuring out just the right blend of enthusiasm, humour and good old fashioned arm twisting. I would be happy to recommend you to anyone planning an auction—a job very well done!”

Chad, you rocked the house! I am in awe of you and what you did for NSA! “I drank the juice”, I had already donated and threw down more because of you!

My husband says the same thing – why bother to ever do an in person auction again? Just do it this way, and then host a dinner for community building with the price of the ticket representative of their share to cover the event. We will have to try it out sometime…

I just wanted to send you a HUGE congratulations for a job well done on Sunday night! You absolutely knocked it out of the park! You completely defied my expectations for what the online experience would look like. Chad, you are a freaking rockstar for essentially playing to an empty room and keeping your energy so high. It was strangely even more intimate than being in a large room together even though it was just me in my kitchen! I think you should even think about doing it again like this next year to be followed by an adults-only party for everyone. Is that crazy?!
Thanks for making NSA such a priority through this crazy time. You all are really amazing!!

Amidst school closure notifications, stock market lows, and quarantine precautions, Chad went online and did what he does best, fought for our school, our kids, our parents, and our teachers. With a “virtual full house”, Chad led an auction like never before. He energized the community, he adjusted to the latency issues with ease, and he brought in more funding than last year! It was a joyous and historic moment that couldn’t have been imagined less than a week before. Chad and Carolyn are true Rooftop School family, their commitment to us and their work is indisputable. Chad’s commitment to the public schools is unrelenting, we are forever appreciative for his partnership and advocacy.
Marisa Quinn, Gala Chair, Rooftop School Auction 2020 -
Wow! You are amazing. Thank you so much for your expertise, time and care. We are so appreciative that you have taken us under your wing. You were so successful with the crowd and I can’t wait for next year!
