SANTA JAM 11

Seasons Greetings!

SANTA JAM is an annual charity event to raise money for Northern Virginia shelters for homeless women & children and victims of domestic violence.

Thanks to the generosity of local musicians, the event brings people from all over the area together for an evening of great entertainment to benefit local shelters. Santa Jam’s wildly popular “Your Choice Charity Raffle” allows a winner to CHOOSE from available prizes in order of tickets drawn. Thanks to friends and local businesses who have donated products and services over the years, these raffles have raised thousands of dollars for Doorways for Women and Families.

Would you lend your support to this year’s charity raffle by
donating a gift of products or services?

Doorways will receive 100% of our charity raffle proceeds again this year. They have an ambitious mission and it really is amazing how hard they work to be sure the people that need them stay well and have safe places to call ‘home’ temporarily.

THANK YOU!

Thank you to all who attended and volunteered for Santa Jam 11 last Thursday! Although we had fewer people in attendance this year, we still managed to raise just over $10,000 with the help of Gwen & Steve Guion's raffle organization. Also, close to 20 huge bags of toys were promptly delivered to the shelters the next morning. And a big thank you to the musicians traveling from all over to lend their talents to the cause, to those of you who went out of your way to find gift certificates to raffle off, to Santa's helpers tirelessly selling raffle tickets that night, to those who helped out backstage creating a very welcoming environment for the musicians, to those who photographed the event, and to those who put the word out on air and in print.

Please know that you have all contributed greatly in making this holiday season much brighter for those families less fortunate than us.
Also, I would love to hear any thoughts or suggestions of how to make Santa Jam that much better since we're always looking for ways to improve.

Once again, thank you so much!!!Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, and Happy Holidays!!!
