"God
Bless Us Everyone"
Tiny Tim in "A Christmas Carol"
by Charles Dickens
Join us in celebrating the
holiday giving spirit with your favorite
celebrity model, Esther Hwang.
2006 has been a dynamic year
for me and I have so many blessings that
I can hardly count them. I certainly hope
that as you read this, you are feeling
the same.
I could not even imagine this success
and follow my dreams without you and your
ongoing support. With all of the blessings
that take place in my life, it would really
be easy to forget those in our area who
are so much less fortunate. Nothing tugs
at my heart strings more than helping
our children – especially children
who otherwise would not have the love
and compassion and necessities that we
take for granted. As you probably remember,
in the past I have always hosted a gala
dinner or fashion show (last year’s
is shown at right). This year, I just
to focus on the children. For this reason,
I won’t be having a gala or show,
but would ask that you please contribute
to the Esther.com Christmas Charity Fund.
I will be donating a portion of proceeds
raised from auctions on my website and
would ask that you also consider a personal
donation. This year’s benefiting
charity will be the children of the Asian
Women’s Shelter in Chinatown, San
Francisco.
 Please
send your new unwrapped toys or check/donation
to:
Esther.com Christmas Charity
P.O. Box 194824
San Francisco, CA 94119-4824
OR you can
Click HERE
to make an online donation through PayPal.
Please know that no contribution is
too small and Elf Esther (that’s
me!) will present the toys and money to
the children of Asian Women’s Shelter
in Mid-December 2006. I am also having
“Santa Claus” make a surprise
visit. We are turning it into a true Christmas
experience for the children as there will
be Pizza donated by Primetime Pizza on
Clement, S.F. (special thanks to Willie),
books donated by Brook Barnum of Ten Speed
Press, and lastly toys, a big Christmas
cake, and funds donated by you and me.
Again, dear friends, I thank you from
the very bottom of my heart and know that
any success that I have is a gift from
God and from the kind and loving people
I call my friends and sponsors.When I
walk in the sunlight, you truly are the
warmth and glow that guides my steps.
And so, I wish you all the best for 2006
and in the coming year. Together, we can
change the world by changing one life
at a time. I am truly honored to work
with you in this endeavor. “God
Bless Us Everyone.”
Esther Hwang
