Clowns Without Borders defends the right to play. For 25 years, we've inspired resilience through laughter with people in refugee camps, conflict zones, and crises. As clowns, we SEE the people we’re performing for. In fact, we're performing WITH them! Together with audience members, we twist our bodies, we make funny faces, we juggle ridiculous items, and above all, we laugh. Our clowns aren’t solving geopolitics, preventing global conflict, or taking away trauma. We’re simply showing up — and showing people that they matter enough to laugh, play, and have an extraordinary day.

Sunflower of Peace is a US-based non-profit organization whose current mission is to provide medical and humanitarian aid for people affected by violence in Ukraine. Sunflower of Peace started its first fundraiser in 2015 with a purpose of helping people who were affected by violence in Ukraine. As our organization grew bigger, we started providing help to orphans, internally displaced persons, and, recently, those most affected by COVID-19 in Ukraine. We fundraised thousands of US dollars and provided hundreds of medical workers in Ukraine with equipment they lacked in the times of drained resources and even larger needs. We also provided numerous educational opportunities for talented Ukraine genetics scientists.
