WHATWEDO
Humanitarian Clowns is dedicated to spreading joy and compassion in challenging environments worldwide, aiming to alleviate suffering and foster hope through the transformative power of Humour and performing arts with our International Trips that's open to all. We also offer custom made trips for Circus schools and performing arts troupes


WHYWEDOIT
We do this because joy, play, and human connection are powerful — especially in communities facing hardship, trauma, or isolation. Shared laughter can restore dignity, build trust, and create moments of relief that remind people they are seen, valued, and not alone.
We also believe this work should benefit everyone involved. Communities receive moments of joy, confidence, and connection, while our participants gain perspective, purpose, and personal growth. For many, these trips become a pathway — building skills, confidence, and experience to return, take on greater responsibility, and eventually step into trip leadership roles themselves.
WHEREWEHAVEWORKED
Humanitarian Clowns acknowledge the traditional land owners and custodians of Australia, and we pay our respects to Elders both past, present and emerging.
We recognise the past atrocities against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this land and that Australia was founded on the genocide and dispossession of First Nations people.
Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.
