— -- Chelsea Clinton -- who has been largely absent from her mom's campaign -- is set to jump into the fray this month, in an end of the year campaign fundraising push.

Invitations for the New York City fundraiser dubbed “Family Holiday Celebration with Hillary Rodham Clinton and Chelsea Clinton” boast actress Drew Barrymore and her husband Will Kopelman as the other co-hosts.

Individual ticket prices start at $250. Family tickets are also available for adults with children ages 15 or younger.

The Democratic front runner has an ambitious fundraising goal of $100 million before the end of 2015. The campaign has already sent Bill Clinton across the country on a fundraising blitz, hosting more than 20 fundraisers in the last 6 weeks.

Chelsea Clinton though, has been largely absent this campaign season, appearing with her mother on Roosevelt Island in June and again at Foundry United Methodist Church in September.

Most of her efforts have been on raising her year-old daughter, Charlotte, working for her family’s foundation and on promoting her first book in a 20 city book tour launch that concluded just last month.
