One trip took place in early July, when Aiken visited Eldoret, in Kenya’s Rift Valley, where some of the worst violence took place following the country's elections in early 2008, leaving thousands of children homeless.
"Everywhere we went, there were the charcoaled remains of homes, schools and shops. We drove for hours and everywhere we went, we saw people trying to get their lives restored," Clay writes on a blog on the UNICEF website.
"Getting children back to school is vital for their protection, and helps build a sense of normalcy in their lives. The re-establishment of schools in the most difficult circumstances is a testament to the commitment of UNICEF and to Kenyans," Clay writes.
As "The Insider" confirmed last May, the former "American Idol" finalist himself is an expectant father after artificially inseminating Jaymes Foster, the sister of legendary music producer David Foster. The baby is expected in August.

in USA there are plenty homeless, sick people who got nobody who are not allowed in any public places; who die nobody notices.
Thank you for finally noticing Clay Aiken's excellent work for UNICEF.
