Humanitarian Clowns Inc

The crew from our Victorian Chapter hit the streets of Melbourne last night with Steve from Portable Beds Project, Justin and Sherryn from The Short Straw and Tim the amazing outreach worker and handed out self inflating mats and sleeping bags to people sleeping rough on our city scapes….
Due to the vulnerability of those we worked with last night we don’t take photos while we are handing out…. But we took a few selfies before and in between following shots! Hahahaha

Thanks to all the clowns that rocked it last night! My step count was over 15000 so we walked around 10km!! That’s an awesome effort!

Watch this space for more to come with our Houseless HelpUP program!

Humanitarian Clowns Victoria Chapter had the absolute pleasure of delivering a very special Tyler Shaw Random Act of Clowness to this beautiful couple on Tuesday…..

After a 25 years of marriage and a diagnosis tha no one would want…. They decided to renew their wedding vows on a shoe string budget…. But couldn’t afford a photographer…. When clowns got wind of this we knew exactly what to do!!

Thanks to our very creative photographer Treasurer here in Vic…. Nicole stepped in and has given them the photos that will add to their love story and give their Grandkids something to cherish long after they’ve gone!

Congratulations to Terrie and Rod on such a beautiful day! May the next phase of your journey together bring you nothing but laughter and love! ❤️

Wanting Hoops for Laos.

We are currently doing a call out to see if anyone has any spare hoops that could be donated to our cause, hula hoops have been a huge success for the kids on our Circus for Humanity tours as the kids love playing with them.

We are hoping to get about 20 hoops and send them over to Laos for our 2026 tour to share with all the kids and then leave them behind for them.

If you have any spare hoops and coming to Glow Fest this November, We will have a small circus for humanity marquee and would love to grab them from you.

Alternatively we will also be collecting small donations to get these hoops over to Laos and any help would be greatly appreciated.
