TRICK OR TREAT FOR UNICEF
UNICEF has helped save more children's
lives than any other humanitarian
organization.
What is it?
Fundraising to save children in
need; thousands of children under
the age of five die every day
because they lack proper nutrition,
safe drinking water, affordable
vaccines, and other basic
necessities.
UNICEF’s lifesaving intervention
have helped reduce the
number of child deaths by 50%
since 1990
