What if I can't afford a class? In improvisation, we give and receive gifts onstage. Now we can do so offstage as well. The Fun Fund is Happier Valley Comedy's informal training program scholarship fund, supported by our generous HVC community members who specifically donate to the Fun Fund. As long as there is money in the Fun Fund and you need help, it’s yours. Just email us that you'd like to use some Fun Funds for a class. Please note that as of 2025, we are limiting Fun Fund amounts to 50% of your registration fee to accommodate as many students as possible. The Fun Fund is first come, first served. If you'd like to receive funds to go towards a HVC class or workshop, simply email us before registering.
Is this the same as Equity Pricing? Nope. The Fun Fund is open to anyone. Equity Pricing is a 50% or 100% savings only for those identifying as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color. Click here for more about Equity Pricing.
How can I donate to the Fun Fund? Your donation helps bring laughter to the lives of others! When you donate to the Fun Fund, someone who previously couldn't afford to participate in an improv class or workshop at Happier Valley Comedy will now be able to. Donations of any amount, big or small, are welcome and greatly appreciated! To donate to HVC's Fun Fund, you can give in-person (teachers have Fun Fund envelopes available at every class) or submit your donation online below.
Have another question about giving or receiving from the Fun Fund? We'd be glad to answer.
