Comedy for a Cause

Options for Community Living held its third annual comedy night fundraising event at Governor’s in Levittown on Sunday, April 23, 2017. The event raised close to $3,000 from the approximately 70 employees, friends and supporters in attendance. The proceeds from this event will benefit Options’ programs which provide vital housing and services for Long Islanders in need

Options is grateful to Martha Clara Vineyards, Sky Zone of Deer Park, Long Island Adventure Park, Little Bird Curious Confections and many local businesses who generously donated gifts for the raffle baskets. “We are so grateful to everyone who donated gifts and who came out to support Options for Community Living at our fun-raising event,” said Yolanda Robano-Gross, Options executive director. “Governor’s Comedy Club always does a wonderful job for us. The comedians were fantastic, and everyone had a really great night!”
