"Chase is extremely proud to join the producers of "12-12-12" to
support Robin Hood Relief," said Gordon Smith, co-CEO of Chase Consumer
& Community Banking. "New York is our home, too, and our employees and
customers were also hit hard by this storm. We hope this collaboration
of extraordinary talent can help provide more support to the people
still suffering from the storm's aftermath."

Hood's board of directors, every single penny from ticket purchases and
