Luxity’s First Charity Auction

Luxity, SA’s largest source of pre-owned designer items, hosted their charity auction in partnership with Luxury Time and Le COTERIE in aid of Save the Children South Africa on the 7th of December 2017.

The event took place at the Luxity’s previous flagship store at Melrose Arch in Johannesburg. There were many highly coveted brands beautifully on display for the auction like Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Prada, Breitling and TAG Heuer to mention a few.

Guests were treated to canapes and champagne and were further given the opportunity to explore the finest ranges of pre-owned, authenticated luxury items from the world’s most iconic brands.

Ali Khansefid from Sandton Auctioneers kept the crowd thoroughly entertained throughout the auction with his showmanship and exciting demeanour. Auction items included a beautiful Louis Vuitton Alma bag, an Hermès scarf, as well as Breitling and TAG Heuer watches. Furthermore, 5% of all other sales made at the Luxity store that evening were donated to the charity.

Save the Children stands behind the belief that every child deserves a future and they place a strong focus on five core areas:

• • Holistic Early Childhood Care and Development Programme: Giving young children under five a safe, stimulating and quality early living and learning environment.

• • Health and Nutrition Programme: Ensuring that no child under the age of 5 dies from a preventable disease, and all children in South Africa grow healthily and have long-term good health.

• • Education Programme: Improving education, so every child in South Africa receives a quality basic education.

• • Child Protection Programme: Working to make sure all children in South Africa thrive in a safe environment free from violence.

• • Children’s Rights Governance Programme: Advocating so that all children will benefit from a strengthened child-rights system that advances and monitors the realisation of their rights.

Luxity’s Director, Luke Calitz, commented: “We were thrilled with the turnout and support received at the event. None of this would have been possible without the support of our partners. It means a huge amount to be able to give back such a worthy cause hope for this event to be an annual venture.”
