The Salvation Army of Metro Detroit invites the community to enjoy a night of laughter for a powerful purpose during its 14th annual Comedy for a Cause event, benefitting the nonprofit’s Bed & Bread Club Radiothon. The event will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 11 at Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle in Royal Oak. Doors open at 6 p.m. with the show beginning at 7:30 p.m.
Comedy for a Cause features nationally recognized comedian, Paul Mecurio as this year’s headliner. Mecurio is an Emmy and Peabody Award winner for his work on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He has appeared in his own Comedy Central special, starred in his own HBO series, and made numerous television appearances, including The Tonight Show, Conan O’Brien, Hannity, Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld, The Late, Late Show, and Wednesday 9:30 (8:30 Central).

The event is sponsored by Michigan Financial Companies whose support benefits The Salvation Army’s Bed & Bread program which serves more than 4,500 meals every day. In addition, the program provides nearly 100 nights of shelter to individuals without a safe place to stay. Bed & Bread trucks operate 365 days a year, making designated stops throughout the city to deliver nourishment directly to those in need.
Comedy for a Cause serves as a kickoff event leading into The Salvation Army’s 39th annual Bed & Bread Club Radiothon to air Feb. 26–27 on 760 WJR.
