The number of uprooted people has never been so high: more than 84 million displaced people by the end of 2020, including 21.8 million refugees. This represents more than 1 in 100 human beings forced to flee their homes.

From Syria to the DRC, from Yemen to Venezuela, UNHCR is present in all of these conflict zones, and with the support of its partners, is working day and night to bring vital assistance to the most vulnerable.

Only UNHCR has the expertise and field experience to deal with crises of this magnitude. However, we cannot act alone!

Your donation allows us to provide shelter, care, food and protection to uprooted families.

They did not choose to flee their country, but we can choose to help them survive and rebuild.

Emergency Ukraine

We urgently need your help to continue providing vital protection to families forced to flee their homes in Ukraine in search of safety.

UNHCR is already on the ground and has stepped up its operations in Ukraine and neighbouring countries to help people forced to flee. Your support can help provide shelter and protection to displaced civilians.

FAQ

The Auctie's team answers the most frequently asked questions.

How can my objects support causes?

By entrusting your objects to Auctie's, we estimate them and sell them at auction. After the sale, we offer to donate all or part of the proceeds to the charity projects of your choice. What's more, you can deduct it from your taxes!
What kind of items can I sell at auction?

All types of objects: old or more recent furniture, old or contemporary paintings, art objects, jewellery, wines, vintage vehicles, knick-knacks, and more generally, anything that may be hidden in your attic or cellar and whose value you do not know.
How do I know what my item is worth?

This is our business! Before presenting an object at auction, we appraise it, authenticate it, estimate its value and, if necessary, we rely on a network of over 100 partner experts, each of whom is a leader in their field. Of course, the estimation phase is 100 free and without obligation.
How are the solidarity projects you support chosen?

The causes listed on our site have not been selected! It is our sellers, like you, who have asked us to support them. If you too have projects that are important to you, auction your items and use the proceeds to support these projects!
Is it tax deductible?

And of course! If your item sells for €1000 and you donate the whole amount to a project that is close to your heart, you will get a tax deduction of €750 for an association that helps people in difficulty and €660 for a general interest association!
