FUNDSY, Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization incorporated in 1967 for the purpose of raising funds for charitable and community capital improvement projects. The organization began with community leaders coming together to raise funds for capital improvements at the YMCA (“Funds Serving the Y” became “FUNDSY”).

After several years of successful auctions, the founders decided to accept proposals from non-profits and choose other beneficiaries on an every-other-year basis. Because funds for capital improvements, “bricks and mortar,” were more difficult for charities to raise, as grants and corporate giving usually are restricted to programs, founders decided FUNDSY would fill this important need for the growth of Boise’s arts, education, civic and social service non-profit organizations.

FUNDSY is now “Funds Serving YOU.” Funds are generated on a two-year cycle through the proceeds of silent and live auctions at the Gala Dinner and Charity Auction event, and radio auctions, and through contributions and in-kind donations.

The evening gala event is held the first Saturday in May on even years.

FUNDSY, as the first, largest, and most successful charity auction in the Boise area, has raised in excess of $6,100,000 for capital projects for 37 organizations.
