Raising MONEY to help our friends and colleagues
An appeal by GM Susan Polgar

I ask everyone to chip in and help the families who have suffered greatly
down south due to hurricane Katrina. I personally pledge 25% of the profit
from sales on www.PolgarChess.com
in the next 60 days to help those in needs.
In addition, I would like to auction off a chess board with the signatures
of all members of the 2004 historic US Women's Silver Medalist Olympiad
Team and all its coaches (IM Irina Krush, WGM Anna Zatonskih, WIM Jennifer
Shahade, WGM Rusa Goletiani, GMs Garry Kasparov, Boris Gulko, Sam Palatnik,
Gennady Zaitchik, Alex Chernin, Team Captain Paul Truong, Head Coach Michael
Khodarkovsky and me, etc.) There are only four like it in the world and one
will go to the Chess
Hall of Fame and Museum.
The opening bid will start at $1,000. Please e-mail me at PolgarFoundation@aol.com
with your confidential bids. The bidding will close at midnight on September
15, 2005. 100% of your tax-deductible donations earmarked to Katrina victims
will go to help them. I will update the current highest bids regularly on www.SusanPolgar.BlogSpot.com
and www.SusanPolgarFoundation.org.
I will also introduce more items for auction in the next few days. Please check
on the above sites for additional items.
Please make checks payable to the Susan Polgar Foundation and send to the
address above. Thank you very much for helping out. Please be generous! Countless
families are suffering greatly and they need our help, especially our chess
friends and colleagues.

Thank you so much for your generosity!
