RED NOSES Palestine (RNPS) is a subsidiary organisation of RED NOSES International (RNI) which is based in Vienna, Austria, and is the headquarters for the largest clown doctor group in the world. RNPS is an organization utilizing the art of clowning to bring humor and laughter to people in need of joy. For the past 12 years, RED NOSES Palestine has been making a difference for patients, families, and medical staff in many health and care facilities in Palestine. RNPS empowers vulnerable audiences, such as children in hospitals, people in geriatric centers, patients in rehabilitation centers, youth with mental and multiple disabilities, and other marginalized groups.
