The mission of The Undies Project is to provide new underwear to men, women and children in need to improve their lives.

Funds raised at “Hilarity for Charity” will go towards purchasing new underwear to donate to the 41 organizations that The Undies Project currently supports throughout Connecticut and New York who serve those who are homeless, living in shelters or who are on a low income.

A silent auction will go live Sept. 3.
