Contributors to the Obama inauguration fund are being wooed with the promise of hard-to-score tickets to the Washington events around the January 20 festivities. New cheaper packages have been added to the menu, though there are still openings at the $300,000 level for four tickets to pretty much everything. Here's some of the details from Century City-based finance chair Cookie Parker's latest note.
Your donation today will help make this historic day a success. Therefore we have been working hard to raise money from individual donors all over the country.
