Thanks to the Ambassadorship appointment of Clay, by Unisef, there are thousands of people more aware of the needs of children worldwide, due to natural disasters. It is our pleasure to know, that we may be able to help the children have a better life, or that their lives be helped back to a normal flow of living.
Clay has made us more compassionate, by his example he leads. Not just to Unisef, but to many charities worldwide.
I sure hope the goal of $100,000.00 is reached by midnight tonight! We're all crossing our fingers for Unisef today!! And opening our wallets!!

Thanks for the update! It's so inspiring to see the goal coming within reach, and I have no doubt that it will be exceede by the deadline.
Thaks to Clay and family, to UNICEF, and to all who have donated and raised awareness.
Who would have thought that, on New Year's Eve, watching the thermometer climb to $100,00 would be more exciting than watching the ball drop in Times Square?
By joining all of our efforts together in support of the children of Chiapas and Tabasco, can we make this goal?
¡Sí, Se Puede!

I hope this trip of Clay's to Mexico does everything Clay wanted it to. He is such a caring man. He doesn't just sit back and talk about what needs to be done, he acts! I have always been one of those that just talked the talk, but never had the courage to walk the walk. Because of Clay's strength of character I have found my strength of character. I've always cared for others, but he has taught me to bring that caring out in the open and you know, it feels so good! I hope you can provide us updates on Mexico as the work progresses. The smiles on their faces are all the thanks I need
