According to the nonprofit's website, Improv for Good often performs at fundraisers and for community members "who could use a little extra cheer, including seniors, disadvantaged children, and caregivers," and is dedicated to organizing affordable and accessible community classes centered on improv.

The organization began in early 2024 with a core philosophy: "laughter boosts the immune system and provides an overall feeling of well-being.

The group's library program includes short-form improv games and other activities geared toward both newcomers and experienced comedians looking to stretch their skills. Admission to join each workshop is free.
