On Friday night "Jimmy Kimmel Live" concluded its week-long run of shows from Brooklyn's Harvey Theater at BAM - Brooklyn Academy Of Music. In an effort to support the thousands of people still suffering from the effects of Hurricane Sandy, "JKL" and ABC will auction off Kimmel's custom-made, Brooklyn-themed desk signed by late-night talk show hosts David Letterman, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel.
To bid on the desk, go to "charitybuzz.com/abc" so that you can host your own show at home. Proceeds will benefit the American Red Cross.
Or, if you already have a desk signed by late night talk show hosts, go to redcross.org to donate or text "ABC" to 90999 to make a $10 donation to the American Red Cross.
