Volunteer Opportunity

Susqueha-ha Clown Rounds

Mission/Program Description:

We will bring a measure of happiness and cheer to all those we visit in nursing homes, assisted living, hospitals, and health care facilities. To quote from the clown prayer “Help me to create more smiles than tears, disperse more happiness than gloom. Spread more joy than despair… It is my joy (and mission) to cheer people up, make them know they are loved and to forget momentarily all the unpleasant things in their lives”.

Certainly when a Care-Clown visits with the sick and vulnerable in hospitals and the elderly in nursing homes and senior centers, you will notice the difference a clown makes in a person’s attitude before and after the visit.

We strongly believe that “laughter is the best medicine”.

Available Assignments:

Visits to nursing homes, assisted living, hospital, health care facilities. Short visits will be scheduled according to your availability. We do require a long term commitment, since you will fall in love with this mission.

Volunteer Requirements:

  • Kindness, Humor, Patience

  • Nominal membership fee may be required to support the program.

  • Time to train and resources to develop your clown character and costume.

  • Provide own transportation
