Domestic Violence and Abuse Protection Riverside

Domestic Violence and Abuse Protection (DVAP) hosted its Second Annual Comedy Dinner Fundraiser on Friday, February 13, 2026.

This year’s theme, “Love at First Fright – Where Valentine’s Day Meets Friday the 13th,” brought together an impactful blend of humor and heart for an amazing evening.

DVAP welcomed an audience nearly double the size of last year’s event, a true testament to the community’s growing commitment to protecting victims of domestic violence, abuse, and stalking.

Guests shared lasagna, laughter, and heard meaningful testimony from guest speaker, Debra Tate, sister of slain actress, Sharon Tate. As a client of DVAP, Debra expressed the importance of raising awareness and support for DVAP’s mission.

DVAP is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) that provides free physical protection services to victims of domestic violence, abuse, and stalking. Proceeds from the event will go directly toward safeguarding victims, including children, elderly, their families, and even pets.

Through these services, victims are able to safely serve restraining orders, go to court, and take the first steps toward new beginnings - with protection and without the threat or fear of further abuse.

DVAP extends its sincere gratitude to everyone who attended, donated, sponsored, and supported this fun and meaningful evening.

Special thanks to..

for the hilarious show!
, our guest speaker!
for the beautiful bouquet, which was presented to Ms. Tate!

And to our shield, defender, and raffle prize donors!
