For the final 12 days of 2008, UNICEF celebrity Ambassadors and supporters are posting daily blog entries about the impact UNICEF Inspired Gifts are having on children around the world. Joel Madden”lead vocalist for the critically acclaimed, platinum-album-selling band Good Charlotte”was named UNICEF’s newest Ambassador in 2008, and recently returned from a field visit in the Central African Republic.

Imagine not being able to take a bath or a shower. Imagine not being able to turn on the tap for a glass of water, or to wash your hands

    Great blog. It’s important that these problems not be seen as intractable. Sometimes, very simple solutions can begin, for just a few pennies.

    Thanks for the information and welcome to UNICEF, Ambassador Joel Madden. Seriously, you rock!
