Roger Devine has led a life based on service, communication, education, and entrepreneurship. As the co-founder of SchoolAuction.net, he has spent the past 20 years assisting and advising local and national nonprofit organizations and charities on how to grow their programs and ensure financial stability through fundraising events, such as gala auctions, golf tournaments, and trivia nights. Throughout his time at SchoolAuction.net, Roger has been an advocate for organizations to make their events equitable and accessible to supporters outside of the traditional top-tier donors, as a way of building a broader base of supporters. This attitude was born from the company’s decision to focus its marketing outreach on schools and PTAs, and from experiences during the 2008 recession, when many fundraising officers became wary of whether fundraising events could work in a time of economic uncertainty.
