  • Nextgen Tap Project Proposal 2014
    UNICEF’s Next Generation Tap Project: Providing the World’s Children with Safe and Clean Drinking Water February 2014 UNICEF’s Next Generation Tap Project: Providing the World’s Children with Safe and Clean Drinking Water February 2014 So much depends upon reliable access to safe drinking water, basic sanitation, and the knowledge and practice of proper hygiene—which is why water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) is one of UNICEF’s key focus areas. WASH programming intersects with and largely determines the success of efforts to reduce child mortality, disease, and poverty and to increase primary education, gender equality, and environmental sustainability. Each March during World Water Month, the UNICEF Tap Project invites volunteers, restaurants, corporate sponsors, celebrities, and government supporters across the country to raise funds and awareness around WASH and to help UNICEF provide clean water and adequate sanitation to children around the world. Water, Sanitation & Hygiene (WASH) and UNICEF No one can survive without water. Yet 768 million people around the world do not have safe, clean water to drink, and more than 2.5 billion people live without a proper toilet. The lack of these basic necessities isn’t just inconvenient — it’s lethal. The numbers are staggering: an estimated 1,600 children under five die every day from diarrheal diseases and 1,400 of these deaths are linked to poor water, sanitation and hygiene. Diarrhea is the second largest killer of children under five in the developing world and can be reduced by up to 31 percent simply by improving water quality. It has long been said that prevention is the best cure, and ensuring that all children have sustainable access to clean water is among the most immediate and cost-effective ways to eliminate preventable death and disease.

  • Tap Project Pitch Deck
    UNICEF TAP PROJECT 2016 You Can Provide Kids With Clean Water! The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) works in 190 countries and territories to put children first.

The U.S. Fund for UNICEF supports UNICEF's work through fundraising, advocacy and education in the United States. Together, we are working toward the day when no children die from preventable causes and every child has a safe and healthy childhood. WHAT UNICEF DOES TO PUT CHILDREN FIRST. UNICEF has helped save more children’s lives than any other humanitarian organization. Here’s how: WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE EDUCATION Helped more than 2.6 billion people gain Helped 21 million children attend school access to safe drinking water since 1990. through the Schools for Africa program.

NUTRITION Since 1990, reduced the number of children affected by stunting by 100 million. No one can survive without water. Yet 663 million people do not have clean, safe water to drink, and 2.4 billion live without adequate sanitation facilities. The lack of these basic necessities isn’t just inconvenient — it’s lethal. Globally, illnesses caused by unsafe drinking water, lack of sanitation and poor hygiene are a leading cause of death for children under five, contributing to nearly 1,000 deaths a day.

  • Tap Project: Providing the World's Children with Safe and Clean Water
    UNICEF’s Next Generation Tap Project: Providing the World’s Children with Safe and Clean Water Tap Project: Providing the World’s Children with Safe and Clean Water Water: A Prerequisite for Human Development Water is life. We use water for numerous necessities from the moment we awake in the morning to the moment before we go to bed. Yet nearly 900 million people around the world do not have access to safe water, and 2.5 billion people—nearly half of humanity—live without proper sanitation. Diarrhea, which is caused mainly by dirty water, is still the second largest single cause of under-five child deaths worldwide, killing more children than AIDS, malaria, and measles combined. Inadequate access to safe water, coupled with poor hygiene practices, kill 4,000 children every day and leads to impoverishment and diminished opportunities for thousands more. The simple act of washing a child’s face with clean water can prevent debilitating diseases such as diarrhea and blinding trachoma, an infectious eye disease that spreads from child to child. Poor sanitation, water and hygiene have many other serious repercussions. Poor water and sanitation contributes to the 93 million children worldwide who are not in primary school. Children – and particularly girls – are denied their right to education because their schools lack private and decent sanitation facilities. In addition, millions of girls cannot attend class because they are forced to spend large parts of their day fetching water for their family. Poor farmers and wage earners are less productive due to illness, health systems are overwhelmed, and national economies suffer.

He bore the brunt of all my whining, He was patient in my shortcomings, and He gave me the courage I needed to stay focused. This thesis was a strong reminder that in everything, for everything, I need Jesus. I cannot do justice in merely saying thank you to my chair Dr. Widgeon. You believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself. You encouraged me when I needed it the most, you gave me a reality check and brought my head back to the ground when I got side tracked and didn’t focus. However, above all, you were patient with me and didn’t let go of my hand through out this process. For all this and more, thank you. To my readers Dr. Pruitt and Dr. Beavers, thank you for your patience, encouragement and time throughout this process.

  • 2010 Annual Report
    2010 Annual Report 2010 Annual Report | U.S. Fund for UNICEF A B The fight for child survival takes place every day — in remote villages and in Fighting for Every Child bustling cities, in peaceful areas and in regions wracked by war, in places reachable by train or car and on terrain passable only by camel or donkey. It is a fight won painstakingly, child by child, vaccine by vaccine, mosquito net by mosquito net. And it is a fight in which success is often measured by what doesn’t happen — by what is prevented. In the last year, the generosity of our supporters has helped UNICEF combat — and prevent — the death and suffering of children all over the globe. After Haiti’s colossal earthquake in January claimed more than 220,000 lives, the immediate compassion shown by U.S. donors enabled UNICEF and its partners to act when it mattered most and to provide a critical lifeline to survivors. As a result, a second wave of deaths — in the form of disease and malnutrition — was averted in the months following the disaster. In many other countries — from Sudan to Guatemala, from Kyrgyzstan to Vietnam — your support made it possible for UNICEF to provide immunizations, health care, improved nutrition, clean water, protection, and education for millions of vulnerable Number of child deaths per day, 1990–2010 children and their families. The impact of these efforts is profound. UNICEF recently 35 35 announced that the number of children under age five dying each day has dropped yet again, from 24,000 to 22,000.
