  • Mission

    The mission of the Laughter Heals Foundation ("LHF") is to promote awareness of the powerful healing properties of laughter for our physical/mental/spiritual wellbeing and for the health of our relationships. The medical profession and scientists now accept the importance of laughter as a healing and disease prevention modality. LHF will endeavor to bring laughter to patients and others to assist them in meeting their wellness challenges. At a time when the health status of the U.S. population is in decline, LHF’s access to dedicated comedic talent; Internet specialists and media leaders will help it make a healthy difference in the lives of thousands of people.
