WORDS FROM OUR PARTNERS

"Mellisa’s attention to detail, and ability to generate donations and bids, will make your job as Event Chair a great deal easier. Her fee will come back to you tenfold as a result of her company’s unique ability to generate revenue while making the process a lot of fun for everyone involved."

"The Charity Angels revolutionized how we collect donations at our fundraisers. In the past, we have used volunteers to collect donations, but we decided to invest in using The Charity Angels for the past three years and they have proven to be a smart investment. The Angels are true professionals and do an excellent job of educating themselves on the cause they are representing. I find that they go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that the event is as successful as possible. Mellisa Neilsen is a pleasure to work with and is a great resource for ways to raise money in creative and interactive ways that the donors enjoy. I have recommended The Charity Angels to other non-profit organizations and they have proven themselves to be a must have for any fundraising event."

"I knew Mellisa socially, but, when she and her Charity Angels came out to help fundraise at our golf event, they were fantastic. Mellisa and her team are classy, cordial, fun and social. They raised more money than we ever anticipated and simply had everyone enjoying themselves while they gave."

"I first saw The Charity Angel’s at work when I attended a golf tournament in 2013 and knew that we had to have them for our first Annual Golf Tournament in April of 2014. Mellisa’s honesty, integrity, invaluable advise and support were vital to our success. The smart and beautiful Angel’s did a great job selling out our opportunity board and auction items. Mellisa raised more money that we had even thought possible with her talented auctioneering. We were so thrilled with everything that the Charity Angel’s had done for our organization that we hired them again for our Annual Gala in March, 2015 and of course our second golf Tournament in April, 2015 when Melissa doubled our previous year’s fundraising goal. Mellisa and The Charity Angel’s will always play a major role in our fundraising events and have already booked her for our Gala and Golf Tournament in 2016."

"Congratulations Angels – We more than doubled our fundraising goal at this years event. Couldn’t have done it without you."

"Mellisa's energy and involvement with the audience was the highlight of our evening. She and her team were instumental in helping us surpass our fundraising goal of $450,000.00"

"The key to a successful event should be to reach your fundraising goal while, at the same time, making sure your participants have fun and educated on your cause. The Charity Angels were intergral in accomplishing this for us. Even though this was our 4th tournament Mellisa provided us with fresh insight, invaluable advise, and support for our committee -- she is a true golf pro."

"The Angels were heroic in helping me with the check-out/cash-out of the Casino and handling all the raffles. I am GRATEFUL beyond belief. I could not have done it with my volunteers, your team was instrumental to our success"

"I have worked with Mellisa and her Charity Angels team for the past 13 years. For any charity golf tournament or gala dinner  that does not consider hiring them to do the “day of” fundraising is missing out-the professional, easy-goin  way they work with the guests. Their ability to make everyone feel comfortable while raising significant dollars for each charity is a special talent. The Charity Angels are a great investment in any event looking to keep the “fun in fundraising” while raising much more money on the day of your event."

"Investing in the Charity Angels was one of the smartest things we have done for our golf tournament.  We have been working with Mellisa and the Charity Angels since 2011.  The Angels are professional and do a great job of educating themselves on the cause as well as the items being raffled off.  Not only do Mellisa and the Angels assist us in raising money, they also provide us with advice and support.

Thank you!!"

"I am always impressed with level of professionalism, fun and success that we have with The Charity Angels! Our event would not be as successful without them!"

"What an amazing, innovative idea to add to your event's fundraising, The Charity Angels.  These beautiful ladies provide encouragement and entice guests to raise bids, increase donations and assist your charity in surpassing all goals.  The Charity Angels are best insurance fundraisers can use to make sure the evening is a fabulous experience for all and profitable for the cause."

"We have incororated The Charity Angels into our Sponsorship Opportunities.  Every year it is one of our first categories sold!  

Donors love the fact their donation is an investment, as their fee comes back tenfold!"

"We are convinced the Charity Angels made an enormous difference in the amount of funds we were able to raise toward helping women change the world!  I will never do another event without them.  Talented, lovely, poised and passionate- a great addition to an inspirational evening."

"I cannot thank you enough. Mellisa and Candace were awesome and we could not have done this event without you.

Your enthusiasm and professionalism brings our event to another level!"

"Mellisa and her Charity Angels have been working with us at our golf tournament for 6 years now.  I can't even begin to imagine our tournament without them...and hope I never have to! They are a vibrant addition to our tourney, and are seasoned professionals in fundraising. They are a wonderful asset to our team and event!"

"I have had the pleasure of working with Mellisa and her angels on several occasions and each time they have surpassed my expectations.  These women are not only professional they are beautiful inside and out and work hard to ensure every event’s success.  I cannot recommend The Charity Angels enough, they are a delight to work with."

"Thank you again for all of your and Candace’s hard work at the Golf Classic. We LOVE the Charity Angels!!!!!"

"You made the evening! Your professionalism, demeanor, sincerity, beauty and warm personality took the Semper Fi Fund Tourney Social to a whole new level. EVERYONE could not have been more complimentary. Any words of advice you might have for us in terms of further improving the event and end results next year would be welcome and appreciated. I would sincerely hope that you might consider helping us again in 2016.

On behalf of all of us involved this year, and more importantly, all the Marines who will benefit from the help given them from the Semper Fi Fund, please accept our sincere appreciation."

"Hiring Mellisa was the smartest thing we did to prepare for our Fund  A Need auction.  As an auctioneer, Mellisa presents the right blend of confidence and high energy with being very personable and authentic.  Our audience really liked her.  Mellisa also thoroughly knows the ins and outs of a Fund-A-Need event.  She was invaluable in providing us with the guidance we needed to prepare for this event. She helped us to raise more funds than we dreamed we could. I cannot recommend anyone more enthusiastically than Mellisa Nielsen to be the auctioneer for a Fund-A-Need event!"

"Thank you so much for making our gala event such a success! You are truly amazing on stage and behind a mic."

"From our entire team here at ADL, THANK YOU for everything last night. Your diligent preparation was evident and you brought focused and professional energy to the table. While it was, in truth, a bit of a tough crowd, you softened them as much as possible and kept the energy light, positive and focused on the pieces, as well as the cause. We could not have asked for anything more.

The night was a success and a large portion of it would not have been possible without your help. Additionally, your immense generosity and willingness to assist throughout the evening, wherever possible, was fantastic.

Please note that we received compliment after compliment in reference to your demeanor and presentation. As you know, when it comes down to it, art is subjective and you never know if and what will be coveted. When all is said and done, we sold nine of nine items and raised vital dollars for an important cause."

"Thank you again for your support yesterday and for the amazing work of the Charity Angels! The day would not have been such a success without your outstanding role as our auctioneer. You have an energy and excitement that is infectious, and it obviously engaged our guests as well."
