Business leaders “stand up” for T1D

Where every laugh gets us closer to cures.

Some of Canada’s top business leaders are trading boardrooms for bright lights—all to help accelerate breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. 

At Humour Me, they will take the stage with original stand-up comedy routines vying for the title of “Funniest Amateur”, while raising critical funds to support Breakthrough T1D’s $100M Campaign to Accelerate

This iconic comedy fundraiser has generated over $25 million for worthy causes over the past 15 years, and we’re thrilled to turn the spotlight on T1D research this year on October 23rd at the Elgin Theatre in Toronto.  

What is Humour Me?

Humour Me is a charity event where a group of committed sponsors, brave business professionals, and stand-up comedians come together to raise money for worthy causes. It applies a twist to the standard stand-up routine by bringing together professional comedians and influential, high-profile amateurs to perform together.
