The San Antonio Black International Film Festival (SABIFF) - The 2025 SABIFF FUNraiser is more than just a comedy show. It's a celebration that magnifies Black creativity, storytelling, and community empowerment. This fun-filled fundraiser brings together a line-up of popular comedians who frequent the comedy club circuit in SA. Hosted by beloved local talent Clifton Simmons, the goal is to raise awareness of the impactful community work by two nonprofits based on the Eastside's District II. Funds raised will support the San Antonio Black International Film Festival (SABIFF) and the EYCCP (East Side Youth Content Creative Program).

In addition to comedic bliss, SABIFF's special treat includes a comedy short spotlighting Black cinematic talent. Be sure to mark your calendars for October 2 - 5 for the 7th year of SA's premier Black Int'l film festival in the Alamo City. Stay tuned to www.sabiff.tv
