How It Works

We Make It Simple — Here's the Process

Planning your next fundraiser just got a whole lot easier. Our five-step process takes the guesswork out of everything — from requesting your kit to handing your winner their certificate — so you can focus on what matters most: raising money for your cause.

Step 1 — Contact Us

Reach out to our team by phone, email, or through our online Donation Request Form. We'll get back to you quickly and walk you through everything.

Step 2 — Receive Your Donation Kit

We'll send you our complete Fundraising Kit — valued at over $34,000 — in digital or hard copy format, ready for your next event.

Step 3 — Showcase the Materials

Display All 7 Resorts at Your Fundraiser. Each kit includes Vacation Certificates, Display Flyers, Bidding Sheets, and easy instructions for your team and donors.

Step 4 — Explain the Prize to Your Audience

Each certificate provides resort accommodations for up to 3 rooms and up to 10 nights each — valued at $3,150 to $5,700, depending on the resort. Winners are responsible for airfare and the all-inclusive supplement, covering meals, drinks, and resort activities. Government taxes and service charges are additional.

Step 5 — Hand Over the Certificate Number

After your event, simply provide your winner with their unique certificate number — that's all they need to begin planning their Caribbean escape.

Why It Works

The Caribbean's Most Coveted Auction Item

Zero Cost to Your Organization

There are no upfront fees, no hidden costs, and no risk. We donate the certificates — you keep every dollar raised.

100% of Proceeds Go to Your Cause

Your organization retains every penny from the auction or raffle. We make our money when the winner books their stay.

Trusted for Over 25 Years

We've partnered with thousands of nonprofits — from school PTAs and swim leagues to the American Cancer Society and the American Heart Association — raising millions of dollars along the way.

7 World-Class Resorts to Choose From

Certificate winners can choose from seven stunning all-inclusive resorts across Antigua, Barbados, and Panama — giving your donors an aspirational, high-perceived-value prize that drives bidding.

Proven at Every Type of Event

Live auctions, silent auctions, galas, golf classics, tricky trays, bingo nights, school fundraisers — our certificates work at every format and every budget level.

No Timeshare Presentations to Endure

Give your winners the freedom to enjoy their vacation without the pressure or obligation of attending a timeshare presentation. They can focus on relaxing, exploring, and making the most of their getaway—with no sales pitches or presentations to interrupt their stay.
