Willmann Auctions

Honored to Help Turn Purpose into Impact

Willmann Auctions was honored to serve as the auctioneer for Come And Hike It’s inaugural gala and it was an evening built on heart, purpose, and healing.

This organization means a great deal to us. It was founded by friends we’ve known for more than 15 years, and its mission, helping others turn grief into growth through connection and the outdoors, resonates deeply with our team.

With roughly 120 guests in attendance, the night reflected what makes live auctions so impactful. They bring people together, create energy in the room, and turn generosity into action!!!!

For most first-time nonprofit galas, simply covering costs is considered a success. Achieving a net profit between $20,000 and $50,000 is exceptional. Come and Hike It FAR EXCEEDED those expectations, raising more than $66,450 (and STILL counting), which is a remarkable outcome for a new 501(c)(3)!!!!

It was an unforgettable evening with nature-inspired decorations, heartfelt stories, and a sense of community was felt throughout the room.

CONGRATULATIONS to the Come and Hike It team for showing what’s possible when passion meets purpose.

We’re proud to have played a small part in such a meaningful cause.
