A little more about ComedyCures

Saranne Rothberg founded The ComedyCures Foundation in 1999 from her chemo chair and she is still cancer-free.  

Our award-winning, non-profit organization has impacted over one million people of all ages with the help of the world's funniest comedians through digital and live programming on four continents.

We collaborate and bring feel-good comedy to medical centers, non-profit organizations, corporations, U.S. military, schools and media outlets to improve health outcomes, break down isolation and build authentic connections among patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals.

The ComedyCures Foundation is a 501(C)3 not-for-profit organization.
