🎤 Hunger Ain't No Joke

Support the Movement. Fight Hunger.

Hunger isn't funny. But together, we can laugh, give, and end hunger together.

About This Campaign

Welcome to the official fundraising campaign for Hunger Ain't No Joke, a countywide comedy fundraiser benefiting Hunger Action Los Angeles (HALA).

While our audiences enjoy an evening of laughter, every donation helps support a much more serious mission—ensuring that no one in Los Angeles County goes hungry.

This campaign is not for ticket sales. Tickets to the comedy showcase are sold separately. This page is dedicated to those who want to invest in the mission by becoming a donor or sponsor.

Whether you're an individual, family, business, corporation, or community organization, your generosity helps create lasting change for our neighbors experiencing food insecurity.

🍎 Why We Need Your Help

Every day, thousands of children, seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and working families across Los Angeles County struggle to put healthy food on the table.

For more than 20 years, Hunger Action Los Angeles has been working to change that.

Your support helps us:

🥕 Increase access to healthy, nutritious food
🥬 Expand food distribution programs
🍅 Support local farmers and farmers' markets
👩🏽‍⚕️ Connect families with nutrition resources
📣 Advocate for policies that reduce hunger and improve food security
❤️ Build healthier communities throughout Los Angeles County

Every dollar helps move us closer to a future where no one has to wonder where their next meal will come from.

🎯 Our Goal

Our goal is to raise $10,000 to launch the first Hunger Ain't No Joke showcase and establish a countywide comedy series that raises awareness and support for hunger relief throughout Los Angeles County.
