Sample event, sample donors. Morningside Crane Foundation is a demo nonprofit.

Built for the moment the ask lands

Everything on the screen comes from the same event as your tickets, paddles and bids. Nothing to copy over, nothing to refresh.

Live, no refreshing

The total, the bar and the gift feed move the second a gift is recorded. Nobody reloads the page.

Giving levels you name

Set levels like $25,000 Sponsor and $10,000 Champion. The screen shows the level you're calling and every paddle that goes up.

Live auction on screen

Show the lot, the current bid and the paddle that has it. Mark it sold and the winning bid lands on that guest's record.

Matching challenges

Put a matching gift on screen and watch every gift double until the match runs out.

Big moments, celebrated

A spotlight for big gifts, a banner at every milestone, and optional sound cues so the room hears it too.

Anonymous gifts

Mark any paddle anonymous. The room sees "Anonymous," and the gift still lands on the donor's record.

Three styles

Classic for a black-tie gala, Modern for a high-energy paddle raise, Minimal for a clean, editorial look.

Your rules

Choose how donor names show, whether amounts appear, and how big a gift has to be to get the spotlight.

How it works on event night

  1. 1

    Open the display link

    On the laptop connected to the projector or TV, open your event's display link and go full screen.

  2. 2

    Run it from the controls

    Switch scenes, call the next level, and record paddles and bids as they go up.

  3. 3

    Leave with clean numbers

    Every paddle, bid and gift is already on the guest who made it, so there's nothing to reconcile after.
