Great effort and a great way to start off the new year! Thank god for humanitarians and child advocates. And thank goodness for Clay's broad shoulders. They allow him to carry the weight and shrug of the other "garbage" that is thrown at him throughout the year in order to continue to live the life he has meant to. No angel, he just walks the walk and I am proud to support him and UNICEF!

As I write this comment, UNICEF supporters have joined together to reach over 105% of the goal!
What a beautiful thing it is to see the generosity of so many, matched by the warmth and graciousness that the people of Mexico have shown to Clay Aiken and his party.
We share one earth, and there are no strangers here.
Happy New Year, everyone, and may this be a safe and happy year for all children, wherever they live on this glorious green earth.

I'm thrilled for Clay and for the kids who will benefit from this drive. Good job, everyone. During this Season of great expense, for people to rise up and answer the request was a wonderful thing to see.

What a wonderful beginning to the new year.
I congratulate UNICEF on their wise choice of a true humanitarian ~ Clay Aiken ~ for their Education Ambassador. Thousands of Clay's fans not only love and believe in him, but are proud to support UNICEF in his name; and to help the children devastated by the floods in Mexico.

It's past the deadline and past 2am and most party goers are still enjoying the New Year, and here I am watching the thermo rise slowly. There are still good souls somewhere who are digging deeper in their pockets to give some more. Clay,you are blessed with a wonderful, giving and kind-hearted group of fans. UNICEF, thank you for years and years of helping the children of the world. You did great tapping Clay to be one of your ambassadors. God Bless you all and the people of Mexico especially the children.

This effort is certainly something to be proud of. Clay Aiken is a wonderful Unicef Ambassador and thanks to him for bringing this need to our attention. He is indeed a true advocate and voice for the children of this world and we are proud to support his and Unicef's efforts. It is certainly the right way to start off 2008-please keep up the inspiring and motivating work that you do. We all need to be reminded that there are so many in need and we have the power and means to make a dfference.
