Hi Hallie and Hunter,

Hope you’re enjoying the holiday season. I’m excited to share some news and a fun invitation. One of my best friends from Georgetown who is a well-known comedian, Jim Gaffigan, and I are working on a fantastic fundraiser for the university: Stand Up For Georgetown on Monday, January 14th at Howard Gilman Opera House at Brooklyn Academy of Music. All funds benefit the Georgetown Scholarship Program which is a support system for first generation students. Georgetown has a 96% graduation rate versus the national graduation rate of 30% for the same population.

Jim got two other alumni comedians to perform with him – John Mulaney (who recently won an Emmy) and Mike Birbiglia (currently has a show on Broadway). General tickets sold out at the box office within 40 minutes!! The response has been incredible and overwhelming. So far, we have raised over $1.2MM and we will definitely net over $1MM. The Gilman Opera House holds 2100 people so it’s going to be a full, amazing evening with lots of laughter and joy.

As there are Hoyas and Hoya parents in your family, I would like to invite you as my guests. Aunt Val and Missy/Rod are coming. Father Leo O’Donovan will also be joining. All the university leaders will be there, including Jack DeGioia and his family.

I plan to invite Josh and Patty. Last year the three of us had discussed a possible comedy night fundraiser for BBF at some point in the future. This event could give them some ideas.

Please see the following link below for more information:

I’ll be coordinating final ticketing and seating tomorrow morning with the event planner and GU. Please let me know if you’d like to join on January 14th. I have leeway now but after tomorrow it will be challenging because there are very long waiting lists and alums/donors are using every contact they have at GU to get tickets.

Chris and I hope to see you,
Emily
