Taking laughter to those who need it most

"When will you all return again?"the Croatian refugee children asked the clowns after their funny,living performance.Clown leader Tortell Poltrona heard this question and answered by founding Clowns Without Borders(CWB).

Comic relief

Though Poltrona started CWB in his homeland of Spain in 1993,it has expanded to 12 international chapters today.Each year hundreds of clowns make hundreds of thousands laugh all over the world.It's a kind of compassionate comic relief for those who have suffered through war,earthquakes,poverty and other tragedies.

Clown around

CWB's clowns are professional form around the world,yet they are also volunteers who seperate their service from their careers.Often having interactions with non-verbal comedy.This can include acting,music and games.Though the central focus is laughter,some shows also seek to educate.One groupe,for instance,used bubbles and soap in its program to show the importance of hygiene.
