Two Navy SEAL fundraisers book auctioneer Andy Saks

October 28, 2019

New York, NY — Two Navy SEAL groups have booked live auctioneer Andy Saks to facilitate their fundraising at their 2019 fundraisers.

The SEAL Legacy Foundation supports families of wounded and fallen U.S. Navy SEALs with educational assistance for SEALs and their families, and other charitable causes benefiting the SEAL community.

It booked Saks to auction off eight items at its annual Patriot Dinner at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel.

AFINS (American Friends of Israeli Navy SEALs) booked Saks to facilitate its fund-the-need appeal at its Evening of Tribute event at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in Manhattan.

AFINS establishes and strengthens the connection between US Jewry and the State of Israel through personal interactions with the Israel Navy SEALs in the US and Israel.

Saks has served as live auctioneer for many other organizations in New England, including the YMCA, the Boston Jewish Film Festival, Community Rowing, and the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
