Global Samaritan Resources’ annual fundraising dinner is fast approaching, and this year’s guest speaker/entertainer is Henry Cho, a nationally known comedian. The dinner will be held on October 11, 2011 at the Abilene Civic Center at 6:30 p.m. GSR relies heavily on this annual event in order to raise operating funds for its humanitarian relief efforts.
“We are pleased that Mr. Cho will be joining us for this event “says Dr. Gordon Dowell, interim CEO of GSR. “His brand of comedy is insightful and entertaining; most importantly, he is a devoted Christian, which is why GSR especially wants local area churches and youth groups to plan to attend. This is an excellent way to help relieve suffering across the globe, as well as participating in an evening of fun and Christian brotherhood.”
Mr. Cho has appeared on national TV shows such as NBC’s The Tonight Show, CBS’s The Late, Late, Show, and NBC’s Young Comedians Special. He served two years as host of NBC’s Friday Night Videos and had many guest roles on various network sitcoms. Henry’s one hour Comedy Central Special, “What’s That Clickin Noise?” is currently running and he can also be heard on Sirrus, XM and Blue Collar Radio. He also performs at the “Grand Ole Opry.”
Most recently Henry has inked a deal with CBS and Paramount Studios to co-create, write, co-produce with Craig Ferguson and star in his own sitcom and is currently filming episodes. Henry was the keynote entertainer for The 59th Annual Radio & Television Correspondents’ Dinner attended by the Bush Administration and has worked extensively with Vince Gill, Amy Grant, Willie Nelson, Carrie Underwood and many others.
