Why It Matters
Thousands of families struggle to put food on the table.
Many young people lack confidence and positive outlets.
We believe laughter can open doors, create connection, and change lives.
Our mission is to turn laughter into impact—using comedy to support families in need, build confidence in youth, and bring communities together through shared experiences.
Our vision is to become a leading force in community impact through entertainment—where comedy not only brings joy, but also drives real change, inspires growth, and creates opportunities for people to thrive.
Before becoming an official nonprofit, Comedy For The Goods was already creating impact through comedy-driven community initiatives.
Our work has included:
🎤 Charity comedy shows benefiting local causes
🤝 Comedy events in support of organizations like Haven for Hope
🎓 Youth comedy camps focused on building confidence and creativity
❤️ Holiday performances at recovery centers to uplift and inspire
Today, as a 501(c)(3), we are expanding these efforts to serve more communities and create lasting impact through laughter.
Community partners: Haven for Hope (San Antonio) · Starlite Recovery Center (Center Point, TX) · Upstage Comedy Lounge (venue partner). Interested in bringing comedy to the people you serve? Email bobby@upstagecomedy.com.
Monthly comedy shows at Haven for Hope every 2nd Wednesday. Holiday shows at Starlite Recovery Center on Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and every major holiday. Kids Comedy Camp for ages 9–14, launched July 2026. Every show features 3–4 professional comedians, each paid for their work.

Founder Bobby "B Smitty" Smith has brought free live comedy to people who rarely get a night out since 2018, earning community recognition for his Haven for Hope shows. In 2026 that work became an official 501(c)(3), and today our programs run on a schedule you can count on.
A community show costs about $500, and most of that goes straight to the comedians who perform. With a volunteer board and no payroll, your gift funds shows, camps and scholarships — not overhead. Sponsorship levels and grant information are on our About Us page.
