When Humor
Heals: Day of
Smiles at LKK
Humor can help and heal. You
could experience this rsthand
during the Day of Smiles at the
Laurin & Klement Campus, which
showcased the Zdravotní klaun
(Clown Doctors) organization
and demonstrated how the
partnership with Škoda Auto
helps spread joy where it is
needed most. The event not only
introduced the mission of the
Clown Doctors but also showed
how crucial a role humor can
play in supporting both children
and adult patients in dicult
life situations. Visitors had the
opportunity to meet the Clown
Doctors in person and hear
authentic stories from hospitals
and other facilities where they
regularly operate. Great interest
was also drawn by three Škoda
cars featuring original wraps
designed by children as part of
the “Car for Zdravotní klaun“
competition. These are the very
cars the clowns use today to
travel to children and seniors
across the Czech Republic.
