<\/a>While this method of supporting the RABF is being phased out by Amazon, you can still use the recently announced Round UP! Program with Walmart https:\/\/www.walmart.com\/nonprofits\/8f849d59-edad-492f-ae24-975d641cd4f7\/profile<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"Detroit](\"https:\/\/curepossession.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/REPO2023_HDR_2_10_23-300x171.jpg\")
<\/a>Another way the RABF raises funds is through a live auction and fundraiser held annually, historically the 3rd<\/sup> week in June, in conjunction with the RSIG and Allied Finance Adjusters Conference co-hosted annual meeting.\u00a0 This year that event (www.repo23.com<\/span><\/a><\/strong>) is happening June 20-23, 2023 at the Motor City Casino and Hotel in the home of the auto industry, Detroit, Michigan.\u00a0 Attendees can sign up for a tour of the Ford Factory and watch a truck being built from the ground up, hear tremendous industry specific speakers and participate in the live auction to benefit the RABF.\u00a0 Can\u2019t attend the event, but still want to help?\u00a0 If you have items you\u2019d like to donate to the auction, email us at donations@recoveryagentsbenefitfund.org<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0 We are always looking for unique items to auction off.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/curepossession.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/RABF_LOGO_3_21.jpg\"){kind=logo}
