STAND UP FOR HEROES
ABOUT

In 2007, the New York Comedy Festival partnered with the Bob Woodruff Foundation to create Stand Up for Heroes as a tribute to wounded, ill, and injured veterans and their loved ones. To date, the show has raised more than $55 million for the Bob Woodruff Foundation’s mission to ensure that veterans, service members, and their families thrive in the next chapter of their lives. The Bob Woodruff Foundation was founded by ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff and his family in 2006, after Bob suffered severe head injuries from an explosion while covering the war in Iraq as the Anchor for ABC News.

THE ORIGIN

Since COVID-19 sidelined all live concerts, the 14th Edition of Stand Up for Heroes slated for Madison Square in 2020 was cancelled. In an effort to pivot to a remote broadcast special, the Bob Woodruff Foundation enlisted the help of David Clark and David Clark Cause. Serving as an Executive Producer for the Stand Up for Heroes broadcast special, Clark worked with renowned Producer Chantel Sausedo to assemble a world-class team to create, produce and broadcast the 14th Annual Stand Up for Heroes event.
