Operation: Surprise Jenna for Christmas!

(For those who have already contributed: To sign Jenna's card, fill out this form by clicking HERE)

Calling all SHN Fans (aka Smarties)!! Deadline to participate ends December 7th.

Hey, it's Barbara and Aubrey here, your fellow Smarties from SCOOP. We thought it would be fun to pull as many of us as possible together and send Jenna a Christmas gift this year.

Shhhhh! We want to keep it a surprise!

It's been a crazy year for news and Jenna has been there for us the whole way. Help us let her know how much we value her investment in our sanity.

We had assistance with some inside investigation to make sure the gift is one she'll really like. :D

Our GoFundMe goal is set at $4,500, but we have a range of gift options to choose from depending on how much we can pull together.

Dinner in Austin options:

$200 gift card to Soto, a unique Japanese restaurant in South Austin.

$250 gift card to Intero , farm-to-table Italian cuisine.

Relaxation for Jenna:

Jenna loves the beach, but since she lives in the heart of Texas, the next best thing is the spa. The Lake Austin Spa & Resort has a variety packages to enjoy.

$565 Lakehouse Spa Half Day Away

$845 Lakehouse Spa Full Day Away

Weekend Getaway for Jenna and Leif:

This is our premium gift idea. If we can swing it, it would be sooo cool.

$4,100 2-Night stay at the Lake Austin Spa & Resort

What's included:

• Three fresh, locally-sourced gourmet meals each day, unlimited snacks, and complimentary room service

• Unlimited fresh smoothies and juices, as well as coffee, hot and cold tea, lemonade, frozen yogurt and sorbets

• Access to LakeHouse Spa and an array of pools, steam rooms, saunas, whirlpools, gardens and more

• Wellness experiences ranging from yoga and meditation to guided hikes and group boat outings

• Unlimited use of paddleboards, kayaks and hydrobikes

So how will this work?

We're using GoFundMe as our fundraising platform because it's well-known and trusted. Even tho we see each other most every week on SCOOP, we want you to feel confident that your contribution will be handled responsibly.

You have between today and December 7th to pitch in and help spread the word. We want to make sure we have a buffer to pull the gift together and get it to Jenna before Christmas.

Depending on how close we are to our goal by Dec. 7th, we'll pick the gift/s that most closely match the list we shared above. Any leftovers will go into the SHN Tip Jar .

How can you help?

We tried our best to find as many Smarties as we could by comparing your names we see during the live SCOOP to who we could find on social media. It's been pretty clunky and there are probably Smarties we're missing who'd like to participate. So if you have friends that are SHN fans, please share this opportunity with them. Help us spread the word by sharing this link. BUTTTT...let's try our best not to let the word get back to Jenna.

Want to add a personal touch?

You can contribute anonymously or leave your name visible on your donation. If you leave your name visible, we'll add your name to the group card we're including with the gift. Or you can go the extra mile and sign the card with a special message of your own and add a picture of you/your family! Fill out this simple form to sign the card here.
