How it works:

1. Give to the group of your choice

2. Send me the receipt with your address

3. Bonuses

* If you contribute $100 or more, you will get a signed copy of Chuck’s CD “A Love Song for Nola”

* If you contribute $500 or more, you and three friends will get taken around New Orleans by Chuck personally. This fee covers Chuck’s services as a guide only. (This is a great way to get to know the REAL New Orleans in ways no tourist ever could in even twenty separate visits.)

We recommend these groups:

1. LambiFund.org (Haitian Based) – They focus on economic development in the
countryside.

2. Doctors without Borders (specify that your donation is for Haiti)

3. Oxfam (specify that your donation is for Haiti)

We specifically DO NOT recommend the American Red Cross and based on their previous experience with the organization, Haitians have requested that people not give to them to help Haiti

We also specifically advise against giving money to any fundraising efforts fronted by the Bush or Clinton families.

Steps:

1. Donate

2. Send your receipt to ken@jazzonthetube.com.

3. You will get a signed CD for donations of $100 or more and a night on the town with Chuck with Chuck as your guide for $500 or more

But you must send us your receipt so we know who you are and how to get in touch with you.

Make sure you address and phone number are included
