The mission of Haha for Hope is to help children overcome trauma by teaching them how to write and perform comedy. We train and certify a team of counselors to work with small groups of children on an ongoing basis.
Our desired outcome is for the children we work with to develop a new set of toolsto help cope with life's biggest obstacles. Long Term we hope we can inspire more young people to pursue careers in the comedy arts.
The inaugural event on October 16, 2019 raised thousands of dollars for Sky High for Kids that helps fund research and provide comfort to children and families impacted by pediatric cancer. Volume 2 on March 4, 2020 raised over $10,000 for The East Bali Poverty Project alongside charity partner The Hearts Co. to build an elementary school in Indonesia. In 2025 we are beginning our own programming!
Haha for Hope runs stand-up comedy productions to help us raise the money we need to support our cause -- helping the kids! It was founded in 2019 by Brian Gendron, an award winning entrepreneur, community leader, and stand-up comedian. The Haha for Hope team is based in Houston, TX.
Thanks to everyone that helped us reach our goal and most especially our sponsors Eighteen36, Ralph Tapia Mortgage, Cornerstone Cowboys, and S/V Development.
