Furaha ya kuzaliwa Bono!
Happy Birthday Bono! I hope you have a great day and an even better year!
Happy birthday to the one who led us to falling upward and learning to just be. Here’s to a blessed 59th year full of tomfoolery and experience! Lots of love from the Lawrence family (Steve, Sherry, Chop & Li’l Miss)
I hope you had the happiest of birthdays! Thank you for music that is a comfy blanket for the soul, that has served as free therapy for most of my life. Thank you for transcendental moments of pure joy, and for the voice that chases the noise from my head and finds the resonant frequency of my mind. Thank you for working so hard to change the world for the better, for pushing others to do the same, and for being someone I am proud to say is my favorite singer. Greetings also from my children, who shout, “That’s Bono!” whenever they hear a U2 song. 🙂 With love, admiration, and gratitude, Ginger Martin-Moore
Dear Bono,
may you continue to rock our world for many years to come! You have been such an inspiration for most of my life and I hope we will see you in Croatia again very soon!
Have a great one! Happy birthday! 😀

Happy Birthday. Thank you for being a wonderful human.
Much love to you on ypur birthday!
Here’s to your next ‘trip around the sun’! Bask in the small victories, laughter, and time spent with family & friends. Your passion continues to inspire me.
Gave to the African Well Fund today, to honor your birthday and your tireless efforts to help those less fortunate but equally deserving. May you be blessed with many more birthdays, much love and happiness, and continue to bring forth great music and good deeds into this world!
Many Happy Birthday Blessings to you Bono!
Dear Bono,
I wish you a very happy birthday, much luck, success for U2´s music and health. With your activism you help to make important things like fair trade and medical care possible for those who are less fortunate. “Love Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way” is a great song and great theme for this initiative of the African Well Fund. Last year I was lucky to attend an amazing U2 show in Berlin. Accompanied by a wonderful video revealing the uniqueness and power of young people that song created such a hopeful atmosphere and universal feeling of love. We were reminded that we can all contribute to a better world in favour of more humanity and tolerance. It was an intense and joyful experience.
Greetings from Austria
Dear Bono, I truly hope your having FUN!!! Heart + Soul, Love + Peace forever…* * *

Bono you have inspired me personally and globally through your music and passions. Hope you have a wonderful birthday with many more to come. I can’t wait to see the band live again:)
Happy birthday Bono. Thanks for giving light hope and energy to us. Your music means so much but even more your causes. I’m proud my daughters are U2 fans and think about many causes because of you and the lads.
Happy Birthday, Bono!
May your next year be filled with rest, adventure, music, and love.
You sir and truly a gift from God. Keep on saving the world, one song at a time. You have an army of fans who support everything you do, especially me. God bless you Bono-Vox!

Happy birthday, Bono!
You truly are an inspiration to me to do better in this world. So my gift for your birthday is a gift of love and live, the access to clean water there where people need it most.
As I’ve learned once again recently, life is precious so we have to celebrate it. There is a light, we don’t let it go out.
thanks for all you do and share, bono! happy birthday.

Happy Birthday Bono!
So proud to make my annual donation in your honor! I’ve donated to every campaign and I am amazed at what has been accomplished. So much evil in the world but this give me hope. Thank you for inspiring us!! much love, katie
Happy, Happy Birthday Blessings to you, dear Bono!!! Nothing to stop this being the best day ever! You radiate such incredible light through your philanthropy, activism, music, and just by being you. 🙂 Seriously, THANK YOU for inspiring me and so many others. In numerous ways it feels like dark times on the national and international level. It is so encouraging to hear your voice (along with the rest of U2) raising awareness of important issues such as “poverty is sexist” and spreading messages of love. On a personal level, you and U2 have influenced my humanitarian efforts, strengthened my spirituality, and inspired my art work. This past summer, live streaming U2 became a special time shared with my house rabbit Solstice. Every day as soon as she heard the opening notes of Love Is All We Have Left, Solstice would come bounding into the kitchen to listen to the entire show with me. Love Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way became our anthem after her cancer diagnosis last June. Tears streamed down my face while in the audience during that song and through 13 at MSG 1 & 2 and Mohegan Sun. No other tour, by anyone, has affected me so powerfully. Thank you for so bravely sharing your beautiful heart with the world. Wishing you all the very best on your birthday and always. “And there is a light don’t let it go out.”
Love from Vermont USA,

Bono –
Happy Birthday! Thank you for your constant efforts to make the world a better place. You are an inspiration and a force above all others. I can’t express how much you, U2, and your efforts mean to me.
You are extraordinary and forever beautiful in my eyes.
Wow! Another birthday and another donation!
I can’t believe it! Just a year ago I was at the Tulsa and Atlanta shows! Both were amazing! I’m also amazed at how much money we have gathered for the people in Africa in your name to help those in need! Absolutely amazing! Now I’m hearing that South Africa is in a drought. And I saw on the news they are digging wells as fast as they can. That’s when I turned to my husband and said, “That’s what I give money to every year…for people to dig and build a well.” Of course he said, “Cool.” But what’s cool is you! Inspiring us every year to not forget about those who are not as fortunate as us.
Thanks again for all you do! And Happy 59th Birthday! I hope you have many more birthdays to come! And too, I pray that God continues to watch over you, your family, and the band!
Love, Allegra – Dallas, Texas
Happy Birthday Bono!

Dear Bono!
Last year was very special for me and part of it were all the wonderful shows I was able to attend in Berlin and Hamburg. Thank you so much to you and the band for being there. May you all keep singing your songs for us!
All the best wishes and blessings for everything coming your way,

Happy birthday Bono. Thank you for the music and all the joy. Love, Carrie
Wishing you a (belated) happy birthday, Bono! Hope it was wonderful. Thank you for being such an amazing human being.
Love you always.
Hope to see you in Australia this year!
Thanks to Laura and the AWF for all you’ve achieved over the years. Irish souls, African hearts. M.
Bono,
Thank You!
You continually remind me that I need to push myself to do more and that not only can I make a difference but that it’s my responsibility to do so. Thank you very much for that. There are a lot of domestic challenges here in the United States, where advocacy has become who can shout the most extreme things the loudest. I’m beyond knowing what I can possibly do to affect change here. But with ONE, we continue to have meaningful, measurable impact on the most serious of issues in the places that need it most, so this is where I will continue to focus my voice. Thank you for this vehicle!
Happy Birthday and many more to come.
All the best always,
