Hello friends. FYI Jeff will be auctioning off a private concert in your home for you and 29 friends during his performance. I hope to see y'all there. Hoping our event isn't getting old hat to you. At the very least Jeff is never "old hat". This year you will be able to watch and donate live on line http://www.letterstosantachicago.com Thanks guys! http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=146133034046

I just wanted to confirm that Jeff will auction off a private concert in your home for you and 29 friends at the LTS event. I can't wait to see you guys again. Thanks for all you do! -Heather

Anyone can buy a ticket. Being a "member" of Second City is not more or less helpful. The tickets are available ONLY at the door. $15 tickets will be available at the door the evening of the show. I hope you decide to come. It is pretty special.

Just so you all know... I realize the post office has flipped out but we are trying to reign them back in ourselves. That's right. You heard me. We are going to attempt to bring the USPS back to it's senses. Until then no worries. We have a line on a local non-spiritual charity thats serves the Chicagoland community and we WILL have letters. Please consider writing WBEZ 848 and maybe we can all get the ball rolling! Thanks guys! email address- 848@chicagopublicradio.org

I have set up a Facebook page for the 2009 Letters To Santa Benefit at Second City. Letters To Santa Last year was unbelievable! I am so grateful not only to Jeff & Sue but also to all of you. You can't imagine how many lives were changed forever last Christmas morning. Each family received not only presents and hundreds of dollars in gift cards but thousands of dollars in cold hard cash- up to $10,000! I visited one family last week and taped a follow-up interview with them. I have posted it on Facebook. I will continue to send updates when I get more details! Tuesday, December 1
