Comics Come Home: America's Longest Running Comedy Show Fundraiser

 

For nearly three decades, Comics Come Home has been a cornerstone of the Boston comedy scene and a powerful force in the fight against cancer. This annual event, the longest-running comedy fundraiser in the nation, was founded by hockey legend Cam Neely and renowned comedian Denis Leary. It brings together a constellation of comedic talent for an unforgettable night of laughter and generosity.

Since 1995, Comics Come Home has featured comedy’s greatest stars including; Dane Cook, Louis C.K., Jimmy Fallon, John Mulaney, Jon Stewart, and more than 150 other incredible comedic artists.

The comedy fundraiser was founded by Hockey Hall of Famer and Boston Bruins President Cam Neely and his good friend Denis Leary in 1995. Comics Come Home has raised over $17 million since its inception. The funds raised during Comics Come Home are critical in helping the Foundation’s mission to provide comfort, support, and hope to cancer patients and their families.

100 percent of the event proceeds go directly to The Cam Neely Foundation and its services and programs in Boston that address the most immediate needs of cancer patients and their families.

Founder and President Cam Neely stated, "Its truly amazing to think that this show has had such success for 28 years. And it just keeps getting better. I owe a lot of that to my good friend Denis. Year after year he puts on an outstanding show with a world class lineup and this year is no different. I'm excited to see what he has in store.”
