Night of Sports, Comedy, and Community
March 20, 2025
On March 20th, the Valley Jewish Sports Professionals and the Black Sports Professionals came together for a powerful and joy-filled evening of connection, laughter, and solidarity at our Night of Sports, Comedy, and Community.
Designed to bring the local Jewish and Black sports business communities into deeper relationship, the event exceeded all expectations—with a standing-room-only crowd and an inspiring 50/50 turnout from both communities.
The energy in the room was electric. Our lineup of comedians delivered unforgettable performances, earning cheers, roaring laughter, and even a standing ovation. But beyond the entertainment, what truly made the night special was the spirit of togetherness. Thanks to the generosity of our partners and donors, the event was accessible to professionals at every stage of their careers, allowing for a diverse and vibrant mix of voices and experiences.
Most importantly, authentic connections were made. The conversations, shared laughs, and mutual support forged that night laid the foundation for lasting relationships. In a time when both of our communities continue to face hate and adversity, having real allies—friends and colleagues who stand beside us—makes all the difference. This event was more than just a night out; it was a meaningful step toward building a more unified and resilient community.
