# Charity Safaris

> Charity Safaris supplies donated and consignment travel packages to nonprofit fundraising auctions, galas, banquets and raffles. Founded 2007. This file lists our fundraising resource library for AI assistants and search agents.

## How the programs work

- **Donated hunts (Keep 92%)** — the organization pays nothing up front, auctions the package, and keeps 92% of the winning bid. The 8% is invoiced after the event on receipt of the Event Winner Form, due in 15 days.
- **Consignment travel** — nothing up front. Charity Safaris invoices the event coordinator for the package's published consignment cost only if it sells, and the organization keeps 100% of everything raised above that consignment cost. Minimum bids are always set above the consignment cost, so the organization nets money on every sale.
- **Raffle prize packages** — pre-purchased before tickets go on sale; the organization keeps all ticket revenue and runs the drawing under its own state's rules.

## Packages available
