Comedy & Community Impact: An Evening Supporting the Future of the Consortium’s Endowment Fund

Community members, businesses, and organizations are encouraged to attend, invite friends and
colleagues, and help expand the circle of community investment. A night of laughter can also be an
investment in resources designed to sustain community impact well beyond one evening!
Western Massachusetts comedian and 2026 BusinessWest Difference Maker Jess Miller will host and
perform alongside comedians Chris Tabb and Peaches Rodriguez. Miller is known throughout the
region for combining comedy with community impact and using her platform to support charitable
causes. Together: Jess Miller, Chris Tabb, and Peaches Rodriguez will provide the laughter while the
evening’s larger purpose remains centered on helping build sustainable resources for continued
community impact.
