The world-famous Laugh Factory and KABC 790 TalkRadio are hosting a fundraiser to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP), a non-profit organization whose mission is to honor and empower military members injured since Sept. 11, 2001.
The evening, hosted by KABC’s popular week-day morning show host Peter Tilden with Teresa Strasser, will boast a line-up of all-star talent headlined by Kevin Nealon, Paul Rodriguez, Mike Marino, Tommy Davidson and other surprise guests. To raise awareness and support for wounded military members – some of whom will be at the event – and their families, the Laugh Factory will donate 100% of all ticket sales to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Created by wounded warriors for other wounded warriors, WWP assists service members and their families immediately following injury and during convalescence and rehabilitation; WWP Alumni offers long-term support beyond hospitalization. WWP offers support, communication and camaraderie for wounded warriors as they continue life beyond injury.
Tickets are $25 General Admission / $35 VIP Admission. Donations will also be accepted on-site.
