1st Annual the RIGHT to LAUGH!
CLICK HERE for KCAL's Coverage of the 2010 Right to Laugh!
Laughter was the theme on Monday March 15th as Cheetos presented the first annual the RIGHT to LAUGH at the Catalina Jazz Club. Master of Ceremonies Drew Carey kicked off the night followed by uproarious sets from Dana Gould (aslo an event chair), Sarah Silverman, Adam Carolla and Bob Saget.
With the help of a live auction and silent raffle featuring fantastic items generously donated by our supporters, the event raised over $120,000 to help L.A.'s abused and impoverished children.
The event was hosted by The Friends of The Alliance along with benefactors United Talent Agency and CBS, and many additional sponsors. Thanks to everyone for giving us a bit of comedy during tough times while helping kids in need.
Stay tuned for information on next year's the RIGHT to LAUGH. Sponsorship and underwriting opportunities available soon!
