Stand Up for Heroes fundraiser to feature Bruce Springsteen and Jon Stewart

The 20th annual Stand Up for Heroes fundraiser will take place on November 9 at David Geffen Hall at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City. The event, part of the New York Comedy Festival, features a lineup including Bruce Springsteen, Jon Stewart, and Hasan Minhaj. Other performers include Josh Johnson, Alex Warren, and The Resilient.

Produced by the New York Comedy Festival and the Bob Woodruff Foundation, the event serves as a fundraiser for injured veterans, military families, and caregivers. Since its inception in 2007, the initiative has raised $117 million. Co-founder Bob Woodruff, an ABC News correspondent, noted that what began as a one-time concert has evolved into a significant annual tradition to honor those who have served.
