I was notified this morning that the Clinton Foundation had posted on its website its roster of donors.

Good luck looking to it and through it -- which I did at length in the first few minutes after receiving the email.

But ever since, the Clinton Foundation site has been crashing. Tons of traffic.

Here is the release from the Foundation:

Nearly 90% of gifts (179,000 contributors) are valued at $250 or below, with 12,000 individuals contributing $10 or less. In addition, in a sign of the significance of the cause and the effectiveness of the work, a noteworthy 57,000 contributors gave more than once to the Foundation and/or the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund.

All contributions to the Foundation make possible the following charitable work:

~ Help 1.4 million people living with HIV/AIDS get the medicines they need to survive;

~ Secure over 1,200 "Commitments to Action" valued at $46 billion - addressing our most pressing global challenges, including poverty alleviation, climate change, global health, and education - improving more than 200 million lives in 150 countries;

~ Engage the 40 largest cities to take concrete steps in reducing their greenhouse gas emissions;

~ Work with nearly 3,000 schools and more than 1.66 million students to promote healthier educational environments and healthier lifestyles;

~ Enable sustainable economic growth, and develop programs to strengthen child nutrition and expand access to health care in Latin America;

~ Assist the governments in Rwanda and Malawi to strengthen farming, water, and sanitation, and healthcare in areas of most need;

~ Work with President Bush toward rebuild and recover efforts in the Gulf Coast region, through the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina;

"We are proud to have involved so many people in our work," said Bruce Lindsey, CEO, William J. Clinton Foundation. "We are grateful for the support of individuals, businesses, governments and NGOs over the past decade. Their passion and commitment inspires us, and together we will continue to make a real difference in the lives of people around the world."

The list of contributors is published today on the Foundation's website, www.clintonfoundation.org/contributors

In addition, the Foundation is separately publishing those individuals and entities whose contributions to the Bush Clinton Katrina Fund were processed through the Clinton Foundation.

As soon as Senator Clinton was nominated to be Secretary of State, the Foundation staff began working with President-elect Obama's transition team to ensure that not even the appearance of a conflict of interest existed between the Clinton Foundation's operations and Senator Clinton's anticipated service as Secretary of State. President Clinton's efforts are unprecedented and go above and beyond what the law requires and are intended to allow the important work of the Foundation to continue.
