ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, November 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Join us on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at The Loft at CenterStage for Stand Up for Asheville, a night where laughter meets purpose.

About the Event

Stand Up for Asheville is more than just a comedy show, it’s a community-driven effort to provide direct support to the comics, service workers, and residents affected by Hurricane Helene. Many in Asheville’s thriving comedy and arts scene lost everything, with no insurance or resources to fall back on. This event ensures that funds go directly to those in need, helping them rebuild their lives and the heart of Asheville’s iconic arts and tourism districts, including the River Arts District and historic Biltmore Village.

An Opportunity For Sponsors To Support A Creative Community

Hurricane Helene left a devastating toll on Asheville: 40 lives were lost, critical infrastructure was destroyed, and beloved cultural landmarks were severely damaged. Sponsoring Stand Up for Asheville offers a unique opportunity for brands to align with a meaningful cause, gain visibility through a collective social media reach of over 100,000, and connect with a broad, engaged audience. Sponsors will be featured prominently in event promotions and materials, ensuring impactful exposure.
