Laughs with Benefits: Comedy for Gaza

Let Gaza Live! Let Palestine Rebuild! 

Join Laughs with Benefits and La Peña Cultural Center in a night of laughs and renewal! 

The end of the current phase of the war in Palestine has left the nation in ruins and many lives still in danger. This is a show of comedy but with a purpose! We are raising funds for famine relief and to help families rebuild in the aftermath of this terrible war. 

Writers Against the War on Gaza (WAWOG) will be tabling at the event and will have resources about other ways to support Palestine's rebuilding.

Featuring some of the best comics in the Bay Area:
