Clowns bring smiles to kids

YOU could be forgiven for calling the staff at the Commonwealth Bank on Bourbong St clowns – but only for one day.

YOU could be forgiven for calling the staff at the Commonwealth Bank on Bourbong St clowns – but only for one day.

On the first day of this month, staff at the branch dressed up in their best clown get-up to raise money for clown doctors.

“Every year, April is about raising funds for clown doctors through the Humour Foundation,” customer service manager Joanne Pryor said.

“Traditionally on April 1 we have Smile Day.”

Clown doctors are an important tool in brightening up the lives of sick children in hospital.

“Their job is to go to hospitals and get a smile on their faces,” Mrs Pryor said.

Mrs Pryor said the team had tried to raise the most money in previous years, but bigger city branches were difficult to compete with.

To help clown doctors continue their good work, drop in to the Commonwealth Bank's Bourbong St branch to make a donation.
