    Charity Bids, providers of the world’s most advanced non-profit fundraising platform, announced today a strategic partnership with Direct Consumer Information (DCI), operators of THE VAULT by BankAtlantic Center, a special offers and experience program that reaches 460,000 South Florida residents and entertainment seekers.

    Reaching over 460,000 entertainment seekers who are incredibly loyal to the Florida Panthers and BankAtlantic Center, THE VAULT by BankAtlantic Center is a community program where every dollar a fan spends is matched by a dollar by THE VAULT. Fans can be rewarded for donating to various charities, purchasing tickets to a Panthers game, interacting with the digital kiosks at BankAtlantic Center or by actually purchasing items and gift cards from THE VAULT.

    Used by some of the world’s most recognizable non-profits, corporations and celebrities, Charity Bids is a turn-key web and social media platform created exclusively for non-profit fundraising. Charity Bids guides its affiliates through each stage of the virtual fundraising process, enabling clients to raise funds through the sale of items and experiences either leading up to an event or on a standalone virtual basis, and extend their reach to supporters outside of their immediate audience.

    "We are thrilled to be teaming up with an organization such as Charity Bids," said Michael Leitman, co-founder of DCI and THE VAULT. "Together our teams have the capability to create unique opportunities for consumers by providing them with one-of-a-kind experiences, as well as, a chance to give back."

    “There is a world full of corporations out there who are interested in giving back to their communities,” said Israel Schachter, co-founder and CEO of Charity Bids. “Our job is to connect with those corporations and assist them in doing it right. We are really excited about this partnership with THE VAULT.”
