Dear Kristen,
They lost their mothers and fathers. Their schools were destroyed. Now countless children languish in over-crowded, disease-prone camps.
Haiti's children still need your help. And with the hurricane season ahead, they now face increased risk of disease.
Will you help these children? Please donate to fund health care, protection, and education for children in Haiti.
These child survivors represent an entire generation of Haitians. Their future is literally in your hands.
Donate before June 30th and you will be ensuring that UNICEF's efforts in Haiti continue. Here are the projects you will be funding:
- Nutrition supplies for 495,000 children and 200,000 pregnant or breast-feeding women;
- Millions of gallons of potable water;
- School-in-a-box kits and tents to serve as temporary classrooms;
- 8 new garbage disposal sites to serve 5 million people while sanitation facilities are rebuilt; and
- Additional field staff on border points where children are at risk of trafficking.
Reconstruction in Haiti means nothing if these children don't make it. This is a massive undertaking. It will take an unprecedented level of support. But failure to act now only sentences Haiti's children to more suffering.
Don't wait to help Haiti's children: Donate now and help the U.S. Fund for UNICEF raise $150,000.
More than ever, Haiti depends on external aid. After years of political strife and consecutive hurricanes, the January 12 earthquake plunged Haiti into one of the worst humanitarian crises the world has seen.
Yes, the challenge is daunting. But if not UNICEF, then who?
UNICEF exists for moments like this. No other humanitarian organization has saved more children's lives. UNICEF has worked on behalf of the children of Haiti for over 60 years. With your help, not one Haitian child need die from a preventable cause.
Please, help give them a brighter, more secure future.
With much gratitude,
Caryl M. Stern
President & CEO
U.S. Fund for UNICEF
