Comedy for a cause

Grassroots Comedy DC, LLC (GCDC) sits at the crossroads of comedy and advocacy. Simply put, we make humans laugh while improving humanity. Our goal is to use comedy to support local nonprofits in their mission to make DC (and the world) a better place for all.

We aim to accomplish this via the following ways:
  • Hosting stand-up comedy fundraisers benefiting a local nonprofit partner each month
  • Educating our audience on important issues and the local actors working to address them
  • Connecting our local partners with potential advocates, allies, and volunteers
  • Building relationships between local organizations working across the nonprofit sector  
  • Building community around the convergence of comedy and civic engagement
