Afterbirth Special Fundraising
A Special Special Fundraiser!
I need $5.
In 2021, we set out to do an incredible thing: a comedy special funded completely by fans, friends, and pictures of my butt. Well, three months later we did it and raised 30K to produce “Jen Z” (watch here) Filmed in 2021, it preimiered on Comedy Central’s youtube in 2023. It was a labor of love during crazy covid times and couldn’t have been done without YOU.
And now, nearly five years later, we’re doing it again. With the ever changing landscape of the entertainment industry, there is less and less reliance on big corporations to pick the future taste-makers. Art is now in the direct hands of the consumers and YOU choose what you want to see. That’s why I’m coming directly to the fans again and asking you to become apart of the next comedy special.
Afterbirth, the third (and perhaps final) comedy special from Jenny Zigrino is all about starting over - but just because it’s new, doesn’t mean it’s not messy. Jenny recounts her move to NYC and what started it - love, loss, grief, and egg freezing. In this special you’ll laugh, you’ll be astounded, you might even cry, but you will definitely know it was worth donating $5!
In order to make this special, I’m asking YOU the people for $5. That’s it. You can give more, but I just need 5 bucks. It’s cheaper than a comedy show, about the price of a decent coffee, and worth more than you can even imagine!
Your $5 doesn’t just fund this special - it creates JOBS. The film/tv industry has been hit hard and because of your contribution, we can hire local talent and give back to the entertainment community of NYC. Your 5 bucks says “f you” to the corporations who want to tell you what to watch. For the price of a cup of coffee, you get to make ART.
What does your contribution get you?
$5 - $499 - an early release link and a “thank you” in the credits
$500-$999 - Producer credit, early release link, a thank you
$1000 - $4999 - Producer Credit, early release link, one of my shirts, a thank you.
$30,000 - Producer credit, early release link, a thank you, and you get to see my butthole.
There are other ways to donate as well!
