Dear Wonderful People:

This Wednesday at BB King's, will be out very first Jazz Foundation Nov. 
16th Auction!

B.B.King Blues Club & Grill • 7:00 pm - 11:00
237 West 42nd Street, New York City (bt. B'way & 8th Ave)

Even if you can't make it, you can still participate and help us to save 
the very people who have already made our lives so rich — the jazz and 
blues musicians.

Thanks to our Angels at E*TRADE Financial Group, we have already been 
housing New Orleans jazz and blues artists, as well as clothing to their 
children.

· We've secured over $120,000 of DONATED instruments and are getting 
them to many of New Orleans most beloved senior and junior musicians.

· Thanks to the magnificent Agnes Varis, we are able to employ displaced 
New Orleans musicians in five states for six months, allowing them to 
perform in schools in Louisiana, Texas and Georgia. We are also 
employing some of our elder jazz and blues pioneers in Chicago and NYC.

YOU are why we can keep our doors open.

You can come to the auction at BB King's Wednesday Nov. 16 and hang with 
Danny Glover, Chevy Chase, Dick Parsons (Time Warner), Jarrett Lilien 
(E*TRADE), Prince Max of Schaumburg-Lippe, the young Prince Aga Khan, 
Martha Nelson (People Magazine) Hugh Hildesley, Dionne Warwick, Oksana 
Lada from the Sopranos and many more surprise guests…. and of course... 
there would be YOU.
