ISPA FOUNDATION FOCUS
ISPA Foundation Auctions donations
EVERY YEAR , DONORS FROM every segment of the spa industry — resort and destination spas , resource partners , spa franchise owners , spa consultants and development agencies , wellness retreats and medspa facilities — help the ISPA Foundation build a stunning inventory of Silent Auction and Live Auction offerings . Business leaders create unique marketing buzz both before and during the ISPA Conference by donating artisan baskets , spa experiences , exercise equipment , product swag bags and other one-of-a-kind items to the ISPA Foundation Auctions .
Held on-site at the ISPA Conference , the Auctions are one of the event ’ s biggest draws . The value of your donations extends well beyond Conference , however . The ISPA Foundation Auctions raise funds for essential spa industry and consumer research studies — so your donation of goods or services will contribute to a collective effort that makes our spa community stronger .
The 2024 ISPA Foundation Auctions donation form will be available in January 2024 . Scan the QR code to find the form .
