$5,200 - The cost to attend "A Special Evening with Stephen Colbert" a New York City political fundraiser for Colbert's sister Elizabeth Colbert Busch, who is running for now-Sen. Tim Scott's open House seat. (This is the race that could pit her against former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford). This donation will get supporters a private reception at the home of Lili Lynton and Michael Ryan and a private chef's table dinner at Boulud Sud with the siblings, along with photos and a personalized book signing.

$2,600 - The cost to attend just the private reception with the Colberts, along with photos and a personalized book signing.

$1,000 - The cost of general admission for the Friday general reception.
