Thank You Pink and Carey Hart!
We would like to congratulate Pink and Carey Hart on the birth of their daughter, Willow, and thank them for their generous donation to Autism Speaks.
“Even as Carey and I celebrate the joys of our own new baby girl, it is not at all lost on us that too many of our friends, fans and families are facing autism spectrum disorders without enough answers and without enough support. We just want the autism community to know that you are not alone and we are with you!” – P!nk (Alecia) & Carey Hart
For more visit P!nk’s site where, in an ’Important Note From P!nk,’ she writes:
“In the interest of full disclosure: (AND BECAUSE I TELL IT LIKE I SEE IT) Due to the unsettling, surprisingly aggressive and unsafe measures that the paparazzi seem to be willing to go to in order to secure that “first shot” of our daughter–stalking us, chasing us in cars and sitting outside of our home all day and all night, as new parents Carey and I decided that we would release personal photos of our Willow, and donate all of the money to charity.
We will be donating the money to children’s’ charities, among them one of our favorites, the Ronald McDonald House, an organization that houses and cares for the families of sick children so they can be together during treatment, as well as Autism Speaks.”

I think that is amazing! If companies are going to pay ridiculous amounts of money for pictures of a baby, at least the money will be going to a great cause. If they want a picture of a beautiful baby, they can have one of my daughter for free… not going to find a more beautiful girl than her!
What ? My son is the most beautiful kid in the world. =O) Im pretty sure your baby is beautifu!
Great for Pink ! more money for Autism Speaks
Way to go Pink and Carey, u guys ROCK! Congratulations on your new baby, Willow!
As a parent of a beautiful girl with Autism and from all the parents with children with Autism we thank you both !!! God Bless your family !!!
What a wonderful and unselfish thing to do. I wish they would be left alone more.
Thank you pink and Carey for your generosity! I have an 11 yo with autism and greatly appreciate your acknowledgment of this disorder! And btw you are one of my favorite singers! Real life lyrics! Love it, sista!

Wow! as a parent of a child who was diagnosed as being severly autistic. We thank you for the generous donation. You guys rock! Congrats on the new baby.
If only the people who are willing to pay for a picture were willing to donate the same money to charity, maybe our priorities in this country wouldn’t be so backwards! Thanks for trying to give them the message Pink and Carey!

I want to thank You Pink and your husband for the kind act that you have showed. I hope that many more people will see the need to help families who are in this situation. I have a beautiful son who was diagnosed at the tender age of two with the Autism spectrum. I have been dealt this hand and so now I must play it. I love everything about him and I know he will be ok with the support from my husband and faamily members. thank you again.
I would like to thank you very much. I am the mother of three beautiful kids and just found out my two year old son has a form of Autism. i am still in the phase of life where i am learning about it and the amazing help my son will be receiving with the kindness and generosity of you and your husband. I know I have wondered what did I do, but the more i will learn than i will realize more about Autism and what i need to do for my son. With your help my son Dylan will get the help he needs and i know he will be a beautiful, productive person in this world. Congrats on the baby, lots of love for you and your family. thank you
Pink n Carey…can you see already how many families you have affected?? <3 I am blessed with a very special boy and am so thankful for you bringing awareness. You are a beautiful family.
Congrats Pink and Carey on new baby Willow. And many many thank yous for your generous hearts. I have a seven year old with autism and hopefully the more awareness being made the easier it will be for our children to receive care, research and recreational activities.
Many thanks to Autism Speaks for their tireless work they do.
Thank you Pink and Carey and congrats on Baby girl Miss WIllow!
I have my grandson Isaiah who is now 4 years old who has autism and all the money Autism Speaks receives goes for the research to help our SPECIAL JOYS in our lives. I have always loved your music Pink and wish to see you in concert one day. I am a heart patient, have a disabled husband Vincent with seizures and cant really afford to see you in concert. My wish is to meet you one day and enjoy your beautiful music which keeps me strong.
Thank you and enjoy Miss WIllow and great job Carey for loving PINK always!
Love ya, Elizabeth Rojas in Claremont CA

I always knew I liked Pink…I’m in my 60′s and I find her to be someone who knows who she is…and I really love some of her songs….Nice to see she is as special as I always thought she was
As someone who’s grandson was diagnosed last week…I really appreciate what they are doing
glad to see celebrities doing something meaningful
I’d like to show Pink and Carey my love and gratitude for what they’ve done and how much it means to families that have a loved one with Autism. My 4 year old son Nathan Lee Calkins just got diagnosed with Autism. It’s been hard, for me to take in and understand. But knowing there are people out there who care and that your not the only one helps you get through. Congrats to you on your new addition Willow! There’s no love like the love you feel from your child Enjoy!
I will return the favor and buy the albums, and not click the pap shots…deal? Thank you again for supporting two wonderful charties.
I loved Pink as an performer and artist but now I have so much more respect for her for helping a charity that I think gets over looked a lot of times …thank you and I know one day my son and other children with autisum will thank you as well
Thank you and Congratulations,Love Ya!
Wow, I knew who Pink was but was neutral on being a fan. This truly shows what she is made of and I AM now a fan. thanks for supporting Autism and ADS
A fan from the beginning, Pink … b/c YOU DO TELL IT LIKE YOU SEE IT !!! A beautiful, phenomenal and empowering, wonderfully admirable trait I’m sure your daughter will soon learn … from you and Carey. Your generosity in kind speaks volumes for the love and care you have for each other and your communities … both near and at large. May your lives continue w/ many Blessings and Much Love. Thank you …
Thanks! You two truly ROCK! I’m yet another ASD mom who wants to show her appreciation. From various talk show appearances, I’ve always thought you two were classy, intelligent people with big hearts… you’ve confirmed my impressions once again!
I and my husband has always been fans…now not only do we enjoy your cds but now we feel pride and honor..THANK YOU!!! I have a 12 year old son with autism and i am going to ask him to type a thank you note from his own hand to you and Carey.
Dear MS.Pink And Carey Thank you for Donation Love Antonio.
I’ve got a very special little man in my life- diagnosed with autism in April, 2010. Thank you so much for your donation to Autism Speaks and may God bless your little lady! :)
Thank you. It is so important that we get the message out. Research is all we can hope for. My beautiful daughter is happy, healthy and wonderful. We want the same opportunites for her in life as we all have. From our hearts, Thank you.
MAJOR CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BUNDLE OF JOY…I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A FAN OF YOU PINK AND I’M 50! MY SON WAS A PERFECT BEAUTIFUL BOY WHEN HE WAS BORN AND NOW A HANDSOME FUNNY ANDSMART 14 YEAR OLD YOUNG MAN WITH AUTISM. WANTS TO BE A DJ, YOUR ONE OF THE MANY REASONS WHY. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! SMOOCHES!
God Bless You both and your new daughter Willow too. I am the proud parent of a wonderful 18 year old son with autism. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity. Thanks for taking lemons – the paparazzi, and making lemonade – donations to deserving charities. You two definitely have your priorities straight. Your daughter is a lucky girl.
Privacy nowadays seems hard for the average let alone celebrities like you two. That must be so annoying sometimes. Time is not money (like some stupid people think) and memories are free and most of all, everlasting.
My son who suffers from Autism has shown me what life is really about without even words. He has brought to a mind level I wish all people could feel. When you experience autism, like yourselves, at first-hand, it’s like stepping into another way of thinking and understanding. Who are we as a society, to determine “the proper way” to think or feel? I’m a lucky one to have shared this process and connected with my son and maybe, if we ALL stopped for a moment to shine light on life, really look and listen, we would realize the potenial of human connection that we so lack.
Enjoy and cherish every moment of your new life before you.
PS. Luke loves listening to your music. He actually got me hooked. You’re awesome Pink. Just think, when you create words and song, you are using your right side of your brain just like my son is wired. That’s a great connection right there. Take care and sleep when you can. Love from Denise from BC, Canada.
I volunteer for a non profit therapeutic riding center in Florida and have found it to be the most rewarding thing I have ever done in my life, by far! I have finally found out the true meaning “tis better to give than receive”. I prayed to God and asked him to show me a way to serve and he answered me with this find. I would like everyone who has a chance to do something like that, it is an experience that is so worth wild that words can not express. God bless you all
Not possible to thank you enough!! Congrats on your addition. Your family is in our hearts! thank you for keeping our families in yours!

Congratulations on your baby girl. As a grandparent of a 13 yr. old autistic girl, I thank you for your support and great donations. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Much love to you and your family.
Thanks Pink & Carey for taking the time to acknowledge this disorder. You’ve shown yourselves to be ‘someone who cares’…and that’s worth more than any money…
Carey & Pink, you two are awesome for doing what you are doing. Us parents and advocates who have children with Autism are greatful for anyone that can take time out to help our children with Autism and care enough. We as parents always hate getting the “judgement” stares or anyone that doesn’t have a child with Autism thinks “oh it doesn’t effect us”…when it really effects everyone. We appreciate it.
Thanks,
Julie Poe of King George, VA
Hello Pink and Cary Hart,
Just want to say congrats on the new bundle of joy. From a mother with an autistic daughter we just want to thank you for that. I’m not gone lie its hard raising and taking care of an autistic child. Its so much they or should i say we go through on a daily bases. I wish there is a cure but so far not. Since that is not in the picture as of now the only hope is that we get help not only from people but from the state as well. there can be a lot done if we only had the funds. Hopefully the money that you do get from the pictures will go to everyone in the USA. We need it.
thank you carey and pink my son and i are in a battle with ssi just because he turned 18 and got his diploma and has 2 friends he is no longer disabled. are you kidding me! i am fighting mad over this with out ssi my son will not get to go to collage he still has aspegers and is globely delayed and it was so nice to read about pink and carey thank you for showing us they care and giving me something to smile about
My son has profound autism and I just want to say thank you. I run a karaoke class for disabled adults and there’s a few of your songs that come up. I didn’t know you supported autism until recently. Even before I knew it the “you are perfect”? Song made me think of my lil mister. He IS perfect. And you hold a lil place in my heart cuz its about the lil Huns w o a voice right? Good job…. my lil mister rocks to your tunes. He “gets it” but can’t say so. Thank you.
I’m all for privacy. Thanks for using your celebrity status to help kids! YOU ROCK HARDER THAN EVER!
