11.04.24
The Gray Academy Orange County and The Charlotte & Gwenyth Gray Foundation to Cure Batten Disease welcome the Orange County community and supporters across Southern California to "Comedy for a Cause," a special event featuring comedian Bryan Callen. Join the fun on November 17 at the Irvine Improv, with doors opening at 12:00 PM and the 21+ show starting at 1:00 PM.

This is the second annual holiday kick-off fundraiser supporting children with complex medical needs, including rare neurological disorders. The inaugural event in December 2022, headlined by David Foster and Katharine McPhee at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach, attracted a sold-out crowd of enthusiastic supporters.

Founded in 2023, The Gray Academy is Orange County's first TK-8 NPS school offering a dedicated in-person education for children with neurological disorders and other complex medical conditions. Learn more at thegrayacademyoc.com.
