Circus Remedy

Circus Remedy is a circus outreach non-profit organization. It was founded in 2006 by friends Anthony Lucero, Terry Notary, and Christine Harnos.[1][2]

To date, Circus Remedy has made over fifty visits to ailing children worldwide and has collaborated with Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp,[3] Amma's (Mātā Amṛtānandamayī) hospitals and orphanages in Kerala, India, Afghan Mini Mobile Circus in Kabul, Afghanistan,[4] countless orphanages in Tanzania and South Africa, the Jewish and Arab Galilee Youth Circus in Israel, as well as children's hospitals throughout North America.[5][6][7][8][9]

Circus Remedy produced two short films, Bipsy Twirlarina and the Make Believe Kid,[10] and The Fable of Profitt the Fox, both for children's hospitals. In 2009, Circus Remedy introduced The Little Hands Project to California schools, connecting healthy children to children with illness.[11][12]

Circus Remedy has been on hiatus since 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13]
