Stand Up for Jenny: Benefit Comedy Event to Support ALS Treatment

Support for Jenny Slatten is increasing as Sarper Guven's benefit comedy event gains popularity. The first "Stand Up for Jenny" show has sold out, prompting the addition of a second show on July 23 at New York City's Broadway Comedy Club. The fundraiser aims to cover Slatten's ALS treatments, with proceeds going towards her care after expenses are covered. Ticket sales have surpassed 200, but more support is needed to reach the goal. Guven emphasized that attending the shows not only supports Jenny but also promises a night of entertainment with new jokes inspired by the current season of 90 Day: The Last Resort.

The fundraiser is a response to Slatten's recent ALS diagnosis, a progressive neurological disease with no cure. Initially kept private, the diagnosis was revealed by Jenny and her husband, Sumit Singh, who are seeking treatment options and support. Sumit has been transparent about the financial challenges of managing Jenny's condition in India and has expressed gratitude for the community's support. Guven's initiative to rally the 90 Day Fiancé community around Slatten has been met with appreciation from the couple, who are grateful for the assistance.
