What Are Charity Comedy Shows?

A charity comedy show is an actual live standup comedy event held to raise money (or awareness) for a nonprofit group. Unlike just attending a comedy show in which you are essentially a passive spectator, at this type of event you have an active role.


At this type of show guests support local charities while helping them reach new supporters and generating funds for the charitable programs they represent. The majority of these events include successful comedians, community partners and representatives from nonprofits; each shares their missions with all attendees during the course of the evening.

Why Seattle Is the Perfect City for Charity Comedy

Seattle is known for its strong history in supporting non-profits, art programs and community activities. Residents support their communities through volunteer work, donating time and money to causes they believe in and being creative. Fundraising with comedians, therefore, fits well within Seattle's environment.


There are many different ways to host fundraising comedy events in Seattle; from community center sponsored events to local comedy club events or even hosting at one of the many event venues available.

 

How Nonprofit Comedy Makes an Impact

All comedic charity events are created to be of value to both the audience and the non-profit organization(s) they support.

Each event:


  • Raises money for charitable organizations.
  • Increases exposure to key community issues.
  • Creates connections for Non-Profits with potential new supporters.
  • Provides attendees with unique, entertaining experiences through Live Entertainment.
  • Promotes volunteerism in your community as well as encourages involvement in the arts.
  • Helps celebrate local Comedians/Performers.


As a result of the combination of humor & philanthropy, each event provides attendees with something greater than a mere comedy experience; it provides an opportunity to positively impact their communities.
