<strong>UNICEF</strong> is the world’s leading organisation<br />

working for children and their rights.<br />

<strong>UNICEF</strong> works with families, local<br />

communities, partners and governments<br />

in more than 190 countries to help every<br />

child realise their full potential.<br />

<strong>UNICEF</strong> <strong>UK</strong> raises funds for <strong>UNICEF</strong>’s<br />

emergency and development work around<br />

the world and advocates for lasting change<br />

for children worldwide. This includes, for<br />

example, working to change government<br />

policies and practices that are detrimental<br />

to child rights in the <strong>UK</strong> and internationally.<br />

Two boys sit on UNBICEF school kits at a home for<br />

tsunami-affected children in Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu,<br />

south India. The facility provides care, shelter and<br />

basic education for more than 50 orphans and other<br />

vulnerable children. Tamil Nadu was one of the areas<br />

worst affected by the devastating tsunami in 2004.<br />

Five years on, <strong>UNICEF</strong> continues to protect children,<br />

and help rebuild health services, schools, water and<br />

sanitation systems.
