Clown Doctors Australia
Government Funding ($184K)
Giving Philosophy
As a program delivery charity rather than a grant-maker, Clown Doctors Australia channels donations directly into frontline therapeutic services. Their theory of change is that laughter and imaginative play have measurable healing benefits for hospitalised children and aged care residents. They operate on a community-funded model, believing these programs should be freely available to healthcare facilities without government subsidy.
Tips for Applicants
Clown Doctors Australia does not issue grants to external organisations but instead delivers its own programs in partnership with hospitals and aged care facilities. Prospective partners (such as hospitals seeking to host Clown Doctors or Laughter Care) should contact them directly through their website. Funders looking to support their work can engage through corporate partnerships, fundraising events, or recurring donations—these are detailed extensively on their website.
