After Hours Raises Nearly $5k at Comedy for a Cause

Congratulations to Roswell Rotary After Hours on a successful second annual Comedy for a Cause! Six local comedians took the stage at a packed Rock 'N' Taco last week for the special fundraiser. Between the six event sponsors, dozens of tables and slew of donations, RRAH raised $4,890 for Giving Grace! The organization provides a safe space for single-parent families, persons experiencing homelessness and the extremely poor, and the money raised at Comedy for a Cause will directly support their summer camps. Thank you to everyone who came out and donated!
