Clown Noses & Smiles Program |
Get Nosey Campaign |

For almost three years, our 501(c)(3) nonprofit, The Hospital Smiles Clown Program, has given out clown noses to children at Tucson Medical Center, a hospital that is a member of the Children’s Miracle Network (CMN). We use hand mirrors to show the children what they look like wearing the noses. This always elicits smiles from the children, their siblings and parents. This inspired us to create the “Clown Noses & Smiles Program.” To date, this program has donated clown noses and hand mirrors to over fifty hospitals in four countries. We have begun a special initiative whose goal is to donate clown noses to as many hospitals treating children as possible. We have named this initiative our “Get Nosey” campaign. If you are a member of a Child/Life organization at hospital it is our hope that you will want to “Get Nosey” by allowing us to send you clown noses to distribute to your young patients. Child/Life staff or volunteers will be rewarded by smiles on the child’s face when he sees himself wearing a clown nose. A smiley face sticker on the clown nose package is intended to be peeled off and put it on the child to spread extra cheer. Just sent us (contact us) the address and point of contact at your hospital and we will send you an introductory shipment of six dozen clown noses, with mirrors, will be sent to you at no cost, without any obligation on your part. We do hope you will “Get Nosey.” |
