The GREEN Community Schools&#160;mission is to create long-term holistic partnerships between the school, local community residents, stakeholders, available resources and families to ensure that the community is environmentally aware and able to successfully practice and promote sustainability in their lives, communities and globally. 
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
The GREEN Community Schools Model employs strategies that provide supports, resources and opportunities to impact students directly and to influence those systems which have potential for contributing to successful youth development &#8211; the school, the family and the community.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
Beginning with pilot programs in Chicago and Detroit, we will create model green schools where all parties will be able to thrive and grow to their potential.  The GREEN Community Schools are stronger, safer and healthier places of learning.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
The GREEN Community Schools Model represents the joint vision of the MGR Foundation and its Board Member, Jayni Chase.  The MGR Foundation has been working in community development and education since 2001.  MGR Foundation has designed, developed and implemented a wide array of unique programs and services targeting society&#8217;s most deserving citizens.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
Jayni Chase has over 20 years of experience with Green education and environmental community action.  She is tirelessly dedicated to providing underserved communities with the tools and resources necessary to create healthy learning environments and greener neighborhoods.  The combined experience of Jayni Chase and the MGR Foundation has proven to be a powerful force for positive change.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
The GREEN Community Schools Model initiative will transform school buildings into centers for green development.  GCSM combines the resources of non-profits, corporations, government agencies, educational institutions, private individuals and community members in order to spread environmental literacy and awareness.  Through our efforts we will move individuals into action not only in their own lives, in their school and professional lives, but within the American culture to create behavioral shifts. &lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;

      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>What &lt;i&gt;The Daily Show with Jon Stewart&lt;/i&gt; is to evening news, &lt;i&gt;The Colbert Report&lt;/i&gt; is to personality-driven pundit shows. Stephen Colbert brings his sarcastic charm to a half-hour report, tackling the important issues of the day and telling his guests why their opinions are just plain wrong. From Second City improv troupe to &lt;i&gt;Strangers with Candy, The Daily Show&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;SNL&lt;/i&gt;, Stephen Colbert has been a hilarious influence in comedy since the mid 90s. It was only a matter of time until&lt;i&gt; The Colbert Report&lt;/i&gt; was to hit the scene. Now, you and three others get this fun and informative opportunity to meet Stephen Colbert after steering the great ship of news through channels of truth on his hit show on Comedy Central,&lt;i&gt; The Colbert Report.&lt;/i&gt;

      <name>Enjoy 2 Tickets to Saturday Night Live</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes: 2 air tickets to Saturday Night Live good from September 2009-May 2010.  Winner must contact SNL at least three weeks prior to reserve the tickets.  Must present certificate when making the reservation.  Please note that the first, last and Christmas shows are not available.  Children under the age of 16 will not be permitted.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Live from New York...It's Saturday Night! Over the last thirty years SNL has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers such as Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Eddie Murphy, Jim Belushi, Adam Sandler, Tina Fey and many more.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Saturday Night Live is still as laugh-out-loud funny as when the innovative comedy show first premiered in 1975. After appearing live on Saturday nights at 11:30, SNL launched many of its unknown comedic talents into superstardom. Some of today's top box office drawers first honed their abilities in New York City's Rockefeller Center's Studio 8H. A wide variety of hosts, and musical guests week after week, has allowed SNL to create, influence, and poke fun at contemporary culture. With Lorne Michaels at the helm of this original show, Saturday night and television have never been the same.

      <name>Spend a Day in the Studio with Howard Stern</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Once again we are able to offer this exclusive experience for Jayni and Chevy Chase's Green School Auction: Sit in on the Howard Stern Show and watch Howard and Robin and the gang do their show live--you'll also get a full tour of the studio and offices by Gary &quot;Baba Booey&quot; Dell' Abate! However, as promised by Howard, this year will be even better!  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The self-proclaimed &quot;King of All Media&quot; has been dubbed a shock jock for his highly controversial use of scatological, sexual and racial humor. Stern has said that the show was never about shocking people, but primarily intended to offer his honest opinions on a gamut of issues (ranging from world affairs to problems among his own staff). Though controversial, he is the highest-paid radio personality in the United States and the most fined personality in radio broadcast history.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Howard Stern is best known for his national radio show, which for many years was syndicated on FM radio stations (and a few AM stations) throughout the United States until his last terrestrial radio broadcast on December 16, 2005. He began broadcasting on the subscription-based Sirius satellite radio service on January 9, 2006.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
In addition to radio, Stern moved into publishing, television, feature films, and music. He has written two books, Private Parts, which he adapted into a film, and Miss America. Stern's television endeavors include a variety show on New York City's WWOR-TV, a nightly E! show documenting his radio broadcasts, a similar CBS program that competed with Saturday Night Live for a time, &quot;Howard On-Demand&quot; for digital cable subscribers in various markets, and Son of the Beach, a parody of Baywatch for FX which Stern executive produced.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In 2006, Howard Stern was elected into Time Magazine's &quot;Time 100: The People who shape our world&quot;[1] and was ranked #7 in Forbes Magazine's 2006 annual Celebrity 100.[2] On February 13, 2007, Stern became engaged to his long-time girlfriend, model Beth Ostrosky.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The winner of this incredible experience will be able to sit in during a taping of the show and observe all the action. A meet and greet with the entire crew is included in this package. HOWARD ALSO COMMITTED WHEN CHEVY WAS ON THE SHOW ON SEPTEMBER 18TH TO LET THE WINNER PICK AN EXACT SHOW BASED ON WHAT IS HAPPENING AND THE GUEST SCHEDULE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE WINNER'S EXPECATIONS ARE EXCEDED...INCLUDING HAVING CHEVY COME BACK TO ACCOMPANY THE WINNER. For true Howard Stern fans who listened to the September 18th exclusive one hour Chevy Chase interview and know their long and close history, this is truly a Howard Stern fan dream come true. Gary Dell'Abate, Howard's long time producer will serve as the host for this experience and tour the winner around the studio.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For Howard Stern fans, life does not get any better!

      <name>Signed DVD, &quot;Gidget&quot; from Sally Field</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes: The Complete Series, &quot;Gidget&quot; DVD, signed by Sally Field.  In condition as donated, may not be returned or exchanged.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Gidget launched the career of the ever-perky Sally Field (who decades later still looks like the sweetie-pie beach bunny she played in the mid-'60s series). The show is a valentine to Southern California, surfing, and plucky girl power--in fact, Gidget's self-aware musings and intrepid ways of getting out of trouble lay the groundwork for later TV heroines like Buffy and Veronica Mars. The show's aged surprisingly well, mostly because of the undeniable charms of Field, who seems to take her teenage &quot;horror stories&quot;--as when squeeze Jeff (a.k.a. Moon Doggie) is poised to return to Princeton and suggests they date other people--with a knowing grain of salt. The teen drama is all a bit tongue in cheek, since it's clear nothing will get our Gidget down for long. The dialogue is a real treat, a crazy mix of late film noir (&quot;How old's the underripe tomato?&quot;) and pre-Summer of Love hipster California-speak (&quot;Well, look at all the wiggy birds around here!&quot;). The set includes all 32 episodes, with a short interview with Field, who has a lot of affection for her young persona--as do we all, Daddy-o. --A.T. Hurley

Valid for 2 people, based on a mutually agreeable time&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Caddyshack is a 1980 American comedy film directed by Harold Ramis and written by Brian Doyle-Murray, Ramis and Douglas Kenney. It stars Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, Michael O'Keefe and Bill Murray. Doyle-Murray also has a supporting role.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
This was Ramis' first feature film and was a major boost to Dangerfield's film career; previously, he was known mostly for his stand-up comedy. Grossing almost $40 million in the U.S. alone (16th highest of the year), it was the first of a series of similar comedies. 
In 2000, Caddyshack was placed at number 71 on the American Film Institute's list of the 100 funniest American films. In 2005, a line from the movie was chosen by AFI for their list of the top 100 movie quotes from U.S. films. This film is also second on Bravo's &quot;100 Funniest Movies&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Fans of Caddyshack- and of course that includes the most famous golfer on the planet- Tiger Woods- who quotes Caddyshack as his favorite film- will never get the opportunity to relive live the experiences from this movie classic!</description>

      <name>Dinner for 4 at Rao's</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes: dinner (meal included) for 4 people at Rao's.  Valid on a MONDAY night only.  Based on availability.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Rao's, located at 455 East 114th Street in East Harlem, NY, is renowned for it's jukebox, its quirky decor, its unmatched hospitality and most of all, the spectacular Neapolitan cuisine. It's also notorious for being one of the most difficult restaurants in New York in which to get a reservation. Year-long waits for one of its ten tables are not uncommon. But what is it about this tiny, charming restaurant that makes it the most in-demand spot in the city night after night, year after year? For decades Rao's existed as a neighborhood restaurant. Its local customers would fill the tables with such regularity that eventually they were given standing reservations -bookings that persevere to this day. The Rao's phenomenon exploded in 1977, when New York Times food critic Mimi Sheraton gave Rao's a gushing, half-page, three-star review, splashing the city's best-kept secret in front of millions of readers.</description>

Levy started his career on the popular late night comedy series SCTV where he won two Emmy Awards for writing. His early films include Ii&gt;Splash, Club Paradise, Armed and Dangerous&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Multiplicity&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
