Manayunk
Enjoy some great comedy for a great cause at the Fundraising Comedy Show tonight at the Manayunk Brewery.
The comedy show is being held to help Samantha, a 9-year-old who outgrew her sports wheelchair. Oorganizers say her wheelchair is a very expensive necessity that allows her to play basketball.
The show starts at 6 p.m. and goes until 9 p.m. and features a cocktail hour and the chance to meet Samantha and her family.
Cover is $10, which includes the night of comedy, food and drink specials.
Organizers say 100 percent of the cover goes towards getting Samantha a new chair.
