Taiwan supports CliniClowns Belgium

From April 9-12, the renowned international stamp exhibition, ‘Antverpia 2010’, will have a special focus on Taiwan. The ‘Chunghwa Post Taiwan’ will present a unique collection of its stamps, in particular about ornithology and the natural resources of the island, at the Antwerp Expo exhibition centre.

To mark the occasion, the Post of Taiwan will donate stamps worth €11,000 to CliniClowns Belgium, an Antwerp-based non-profit organization whose motto is ‘Laughter is the best medicine’ and which entertains young patients in hospitals. If the CliniClowns succeed in selling the donation, they will be able to visit an extra 780 children in hospital in the coming 12 months.

Philatelists, who wish to support the CliniClowns, can visit the animated stand of Taiwan in Hall 2 to buy these beautiful stamps. Buyers will receive a free calligraphy of their name written in traditional Chinese characters while enjoying live music and other surprises.

We would like to invite you to the official handing-over ceremony in the presence of CliniClowns and featuring a display by a spectacular duo-lion dance at 11.30am on Friday, April 9 on the central stage in Hall 1 of Antwerp Expo (free entrance).
