MySpace Exclusive - Joel and Benji Madden travel to Africa with UNICEF
Nicole Richie at Beyond Shelter


Hi Everyone,

This past year, philanthropy has opened my eyes to so much need and so much beauty. I have also realized how easy it is to help, and how rewarding it feels to be able to make a positive difference in someone's life.

Last week, my friend Carlos and I brought a video camera to Beyond Shelter. Just the two of us. There are 175 children with families here, most of whom have been homeless at some point.

Today, they play in a concrete courtyard. Because of the neighborhood they live in, they have nowhere else to play. I met a woman who has ten children living in a three-bedroom apartment. The Beyond Shelter rec room only allows ten kids at a time. I wish you could all go there with me and see.

I'd like to share with you a glimpse of these beautiful children through my eyes.

Please watch this video, Text "CHILD" to "90999" up to 5 times, share this with as many people as you can -- and ask them, from your heart, to join you in bringing more light and laughter to these beautiful faces.

It's just you and me making this happen. There is so much we can do together to help. A playground is just the beginning. We can change the world -- you and I.

I'm asking from my heart, and I cannot do it without your help. Please, you guys. Thank you for watching, texting and passing it on.

Peace & love,

Nicole


The Richie-Madden Children’s Foundation is dedicated to bringing meaningful opportunities to children in the U.S. and abroad, while also striving to bring light and laughter into their lives through unique entertainment and special events.

Nicole and Joel, and their family, aim to use their place in pop culture to raise awareness about the domestic and international issues endangering children, to highlight the organizations that are making a positive impact, and to inspire others, especially young people, to get involved.



Text CHILD to 90999

Change the life of a child… with a simple text.

September 2008 - We’re pleased to announce the launch of "Text CHILD to 90999", a new campaign to raise funds to help kids through a new kind of fundraising – with a simple text message. Each text message donates $5, billed to your phone bill. This is the first time a campaign is using popular culture mass media to raise funds with the new technology, so we’re excited to see how much we can raise.

The first thing we want to do is build a playground at Beyond Shelter. Their service enriched apartment building in Los Angeles has families with 175 kids in it, most of whom were formerly homeless. They’re playing in a concrete courtyard where we held our campaign launch today. We want to build them a playground – and you can help!

100% of your $5.00 donation goes to The Richie-Madden Children’s Foundation to support programs like the playground at Beyond Shelter. Standard text message rates also apply.

Most of the major US carriers support the campaign. If you’re outside the US, you can still join us by donating online.

We haven’t produced commercials or advertisements. It’s just you and us. Hopefully enough people will text "CHILD" to "90999" once, twice, up to five times, to help us build a playground at Beyond Shelter… and more.

Thanks for your help!
And, please, TEXT "C-H-I-L-D" to "9-0-9-9-9"

March, 2009: Thanks to all of Nicole, Joel and Benji's guests who participated in the live auction for UNICEF's Tap Project sponsored by Sony Cierge at MyHouse in Los Angeles.

Hi, My name is Christina, Iam using my sister's account because I do not have one.. The reason why Iam contacting you is because our family really needs your help. My cousin Erin is a lovely 28 year old who has 3 children & just last month had a tumor removed from her leg that was 10 lbs. Prior to finding her cancer, he eldest daughter Charlotte, a beautiful 6 year old, was diagnosed with bone cancer, we almost lost her 3 times but because of our faith she held through & made it! She has been cancer free for almost 2 years & our entire family couldnt be happier! Yesterday we found out that the cancer has returned in her lungs. There is only so much we can do for them because we are all in Chicago & they are in Scottsdale AZ. We are planning on a fund raiser to earn the money to help them with the medical bills, for support. But privately my cousin mentioned to me that they are about to loose their home as well. I love them so much & that little girl has been through too much I cant even stomach it. Is there anything you can do to help? Any tips on what I can do? Im clueless at this point...

Thank you,
Christina

I feel that you really can have a wonderful friendship with someone even though you've never met them.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />It's different than other friendships, but I do love and care for my online friends!<br />If I happened to show up on your door step crying,<br />Would you Care?<br />If I called you and asked you to pick me up because something Happened,<br />Would you come?<br />If I had one day left, to live my life;<br />Would you be part of That last day?<br />If I needed a shoulder to cry on,<br />Would you give me Yours?<br />This is a test to see who your real friends are or if you are just someone to talk to you when they are bored<br />Do you know what the relationship is between your two eyes? They blink together, they move together, they cry together, they see things together, and they sleep together,<br />But they never see each other; … that's what friendship is.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Your aspiration is your motivation, your motivation is your belief, Your Belief is your peace, your peace is your target, your target is heaven, and Life is like hard core torture without it .<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />It's ' World Best Friends Week. Who is your best friend? Send this to all Your good friends, even me, if I am one of them. See how many you get back.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />If you get more than 3 then you really are a lovable person
