On Thursday April 9, 2026, Ricky, Inc. will be hosting a Comedy Show Fundraiser to benefit our nonprofits mission of helping those suffering from homelessness, substance use disorder and mental health concerns. The show will feature Boston's most celebrated comedians, Lenny Clarke, Steve Sweeney and hosted by Jimmy Tingle.
We are a 100% nonprofit organization, and all proceeds go back into the community where they belong. No-one at Ricky, Inc. has ever been paid and never will; we are ALL volunteers working towards the common goal of helping those in crisis.
Over the past six years, with your help, we have distributed over 3,700 backpacks filled with numerous personal hygiene products, seasonal clothing and many more necessary items. We have distributed over 2,200 doses of Naloxone (Nasal Narcan) which is a life-saving opioid reversal spray, we have provided thousands of Fleece blankets, thermal emergency blankets, socks, winter hats, gloves, neck warmers, scarfs and hand warmers to unhoused persons and to public health organizations that serve this community. We have provided hundreds of rent scholarships to persons in treatment that were facing a return to the streets due to their financial constraints and were given a second chance for recovery. Ricky, Inc. has also provided hundreds of rides to Detox, CSS, TSS and other treatment facilities through our Uber Transportation Program.
"Ricky, Inc. has been able to provide these materials and services and much, much more, but only because of your kindness, thoughtfulness and compassion".
Please join us on April 9th at The Norwood Theatre for an evening of fun and laughter and know that your attendance will make a difference in the life of someone in need.
God bless,
Ricky, Inc. Board of Directors
