The 24 Hours of Improvisation:

This is a great event held by The Second City every year. 24 hours of pure improvisation. Guest teams join the brave few who will attempt all 24. All proceeds go to an amazing cause. The LA Youth Network.

Los Angeles Youth Network is based in Hollywood, and targets runaway, homeless, and system youth, ages 12-17, in Los Angeles County.  Their program stabilizes youth and transitions them to safer places by facilitating their return home, assisting with placing them in foster/group homes, and teaching the skills and providing the resources needed to live independently. Services are offered in English and Spanish 7 days a week/365 days a year.  LAYN prides themselves on working with any youth who is in need of a home.  Their vision is to empower these youth to live to their full potential as they grow into healthy, successful adults.  They provide beds, shelter, a nurturing environment, and the resources necessary to create success stories out of young people in often desperate, difficult situations.  The recent economic downturn has cut into their funding, while adding exponentially to the need in Los Angeles County. Second City Los Angeles is proud to help fill the funding gap for this vital chain of service within the LA community.

We appologize in advance, this is going to be spammed quite a bit in order to build a house for all 24 hours. This cause is very important us and we want you all to be apart of it.
