COVID is No Joke Virtual Comedy Fest

The COVID-19 pandemic is no joke. But science shows that laughter gives your body a break from stress. So, let’s do it: Laugh together, while we …stay apart.

The livestreamed event will raise funds to protect frontline health workers, with support going to Americares lifesaving COVID-19 health programs. Americares is providing critically needed protective gear, including masks, gloves and disinfecting supplies, to health workers in the U.S. and around the world. With this support, Americares health care partners will continue to meet the needs of vulnerable communities, especially the low-income, uninsured, in the weeks and months to come.
