CGB’s relationship with Bert and his team started during the pandemic. While creating CGB Laugh Aid, Bert was one of the first stand up comics to join our stream-a-thon to help his fellow comedians.

This led to Bert being a playing an integral role in our inaugural Celebrity Golf Classic in 2021.

As our relationship deepened, he offered a Meet and Greet during his 2022 Fully Loaded Tour. The auction generated a nice donation to CGB.

This year, we are proud to announce Comedy Gives Back is the Fully Loaded Comedy Festival's charity partner. We couldn’t be more grateful to Bert and his amazing team for everything they have given back to the comedy community. Thank you to Bert, his team and of course, and his fans.
