More on Australian Fire relief efforts

Comedy giants Joe Rogan, Jim Jeffries and Whitney Cummings have teamed up to appear at Stand Up For Australian Fires, the Australia wildfires benefit show taking place Jan. 26 at the Novo in Los Angeles.

Proceeds from the event–co-produced by Kevin Lyman and Joe Sib–will go to Wildlife Warriors, the Australian nonprofit dedicated to the protection of that country’s wildlife.

The event will be hosted by L.A.-via-Australia standup Monty Franklin, who can be seen on Rob Schneider’s Netflix series Real Rob. Franklin teamed up with punk-rock movers and shakers Kevin Lyman (Warped Tour) and Joe Sib (SideOneDummy) to put together an event that aims to bring awareness to the massive ecological disaster that the country is facing.

There will also be funding outreach to generate donations to help assist and preserve Australian wildlife.

Funds from the benefit event will be used to assist the Australia Zoo Hospital. The money will be disbursed to send medical supplies to rescuers and carers on the frontline of fire-affected areas; purchase food preparation equipment for wildlife care groups to cater for the huge number of patients; and to construct a climate-controlled intensive care ward for the ever-growing number of koalas harmed by the fires.
