LaughFest

From start to finish, this year’s Gilda’s LaughFest was powered by community. Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, and supported us through sponsorship. Your involvement helps make laughter possible for so many and continues to support the cancer and grief emotional health programs offered at Gilda's Club Grand Rapids.

Stay tuned as we look back on the memories and meaningful moments from this year’s festival.
