Who is Oge?
Ogechukwu Ani (known as Oge) is 28 years old and has worked as a senior show manager at Jongleurs Comedy Clubs for more than 10 years. Oge has been battling terminal cancer for over 2 years now and this fantastic show will provide financial support for her daughter Tizziah who is only 4 years old.
The Charity
Jongleurs are setting up a fund that supports children just like Tizziah. The Jongleurs ‘Oge’ fund will be for any child whose young mother/father is terminally ill. The fund will aim to provide a supportive home environment and alleviate the fear of dealing with every day financial and emotional problems.
How is this done?
The fund will help with the little things that a healthy family can take for granted, like paying for a school uniform, books, the bus pass, school trips, holidays as well as providing day to day support and counselling.
THE DVD
Jongleurs have filmed and produced a DVD of the show that is available to buy. To get your copy please email .
100% of all ticket sales and DVD sales will go towards the Oge Fund.
