Comedy Café 2026: Laughs That Change Lives
Get ready for another unforgettable night! Comedian Dustin Nickerson is returning to Tacoma in March 2026 for our annual Comedy Café fundraiser, an evening of laughter, good food, and community impact.
This year’s event helps send middle school, high school, and teen parents to Summer Camp, where life-changing relationships and lasting memories are made. Every ticket, every laugh, and every donation goes toward giving youth the chance to experience hope, belonging, and joy.
Come laugh with us, share a meal, and be part of something that goes beyond the stage, because when our community shows up, lives change.
Last year’s Comedy Café brought the house down with comedian Dustin Nickerson, laughter echoing through the room and hearts united around a shared cause. Guests enjoyed an evening of community, purpose, and joy, all to help send youth and teen parents to Summer Camp. Together, we turned laughter into lasting impact for young people across the Tacoma area.
THANK YOU for an incredible Comedy Café!
Together we raised $48,000 to send Tacoma area youth to YFC Camp last summer!
Want to keep the momentum going? If you’re inspired to send even more kids to Camp, you can still give today:
Thank you to our generous event sponsors:
