Testimonials

"Working with Alan Temkin on our Care Dimensions Comics for Care Fundraiser was an absolute pleasure. His energy, expertise, and engaging style brought our event to life, captivating the crowd and inspiring generous donations. Alan kept the evening fun, making our live auction and “Raise the Paddle” moments exciting and memorable. Thanks to his skillful guidance, we exceeded our fundraising goals.  We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in making our fundraiser a success!"

Care Dimensions
Comics for Care Fundraiser, 2024

"Al is extremely charismatic and likeable and there is no question that he was instrumental in making this year's event our best one ever. He was engaging and fun and has a natural ability to read the crowd and inspire donors to give (more).

 

I especially appreciate the preparation that went into his work—he took the time to learn about our programs and the 'why' of our fundraising and was masterful at interjecting that at key moments during the auction to maximize the number of gifts and amount given by each bidder. He also had a good knowledge of the items being auctioned and used it to generate excitement. 

 

We will be getting on his calendar for future events as soon as we set the dates."

"We are so grateful to Al for emceeing our annual gala the last two years (and soon to be three!) He brings a passion for mission and knowledge of the organization that ties the evening's stories together, and the energy level necessary to keep everyone focused and engaged. He truly cares about the outcome of the event and the impact on the organization and the community. That care translates into working as a partner with the organization and leading with love for our families.
