“For the last 14 years, the Stand Up for Heroes event has continued to inspire our nation and serve as the perfect reminder of all of the brave individuals that have defended our country selflessly in our military,” said Bob Woodruff, ABC News correspondent and co-founder of the Bob Woodruff Foundation, in a press statement. “This year, it is especially important that we unite to show support for their sacrifices as we come together virtually to stand up for our heroes."

“We’re extremely honored and proud to continue our partnership with the Bob Woodruff Foundation to present Stand Up for Heroes,” added Caroline Hirsch, founder and owner of the New York Comedy Festival and Carolines on Broadway.  “We owe so much to our brave military veterans and their families for the service and sacrifice to our country; it’s very humbling to have the opportunity to honor them over the last 14 years through this great event.”

The 14th annual Stand Up for Heroes event airs on Wednesday, Nov. 18 at 9 p.m. ET on ABC News Live, TikTok, Facebook Watch, Cheddar, Twitch and Armed Forces Network.
