WE ARE THE SAFETY NET FOR THE COMEDY COMMUNITY
For every Craig Robinson, Bert Kreischer, Whitney Cummings, and HowIe Mandel, there are hundreds of comedians that you don't know.
We believe, being alone onstage is part of the job. Feeling alone off stage is unacceptable.
Comedy Gives Back is the safety net for the comedy community by providing financial crisis relief, mental health and chemical dependency treatment.
