To  raise  awareness  for  the  Tap  Project,  students  from  UNICEF  at  Utah  State  University  carried  buckets  of  water  on  campus  to  understand  what  it  felt  like  to  walk  for  clean  water,  and  fundraised  about  $900  to  support  the  world’s  children!  Keep  it  up,  UNICEF  at  USU!    

 

This  month,  Rutgers  UNICEF  invited  Tara  Broughel,  a  US  Fund  for  UNICEF  Program  Officer,  to  present  the  “1.4  Billion  Reasons”  Presentation  to  the  Rutgers  community.  The  event  was  a  success,  inspiring  and  educating  Rutgers  students  on  the  extreme  barriers  and  issues  related  to  eliminating  extreme  poverty;  Rutgers  UNICEF  is  planning  to  have  the  Global  Poverty  Project  event  as  an  annual  event.    Keep  up  the  great  work,  RU  UNICEF!      

UNICEF  at  Boston  University  is  hosting  their  UNICEF  Across  the  Globe  event  to  raise  awareness  for  the  Tap  Project.  Local  bands  as  well  as  BU’s  very  own  acapella  groups  will  be  performing  to  raise  awareness  on  the  importance  of  clean  water  and  sanitation.  It  will  definitely  be  an  entertaining  night,  filled  with  music,  food,  and  fun  water  games!    Good  Luck,  UNICEF  at  BU!            

Zone  6  is  proud  to  welcome  two  new  UNICEF  Campus  Initiative  clubs  in  Fullerton,  California  and  San  Joaquin  Valley  College  in  Temecula,  California.  

Welcome,  guys!      

UNICEF  at  Iowa  State  University  held  World  Water  Week  with  various  activities  every  day  of  the  week.  On  Monday,  they  hosted  a  Mile  of  Change  with  a  line  of  duct  tape  in  front  of  their  library,  where  students  donated  any  change  they  had.  On  Wednesday,  they  held  a  Tap  Dance  Session,  offering  unlimited  dance  lessons  to  support  clean  water.    “Dirty  water”  was  also  available,  where  they  gave  out  water  with  different  flavors  of  kool-­‐aid  in  it,  with  each  color  representing  a  different  disease.  Great  job,  ISU!

UNICEF-­‐DePaul  FASHION  SHOW  

UNICEF-­‐DePaul  organized  the  first  ever  'FOR  THE  SAKE  OF  FASHION'  show  in  early  March,  raising  about  $800.  UNICEF-­‐DePaul  focused  on  awareness  for  The  UNICEF  Tap  Project  and  shared  the  importance  of  clean  water  and  proper  sanitation  to  more  than  200  people.  Through  their  efforts,  UNICEF-­‐DePaul  aims  to  spread  the  goals  of  UNICEF  to  ensure  a  more  unified  front  to  help  the  world’s  children.  Great  work,  UNICEF-­‐DePaul!  

UNICEF  at  Puerto  Rico  Mayaguez  participated  in  an  event  called  Abrázame  Mayagüez  where  they  advocated  for  hugs  instead  of    violence.  It  was  a  succesful  event    held  at  the  Mayaguez  mall  on  March  17.  Great  job,  UPRM!    

 UNICEF  at  Puerto  Rico  Mayaguez  

The  US  Fund  for  UNICEF  has  partnered  with  The  Global  Poverty  Project  to  participate  in  Live  Below  the  Line  from  April  29–May  3.  Thousands  of  people  around  the  world  will  commit  to  Live  Below  the  Line  together.    To  learn  more,  join  us  for  the  Live  Below  the  Line  Webinar  on  April  24th!    

UNICEF  at  CSU  East  Bay  recently  created  an  informational  video  to  publicize  on  campus.  This  is  a  great  and  innovative  way  to  let  more  people  know  about  their  club.    We  commend  them  for  thinking  outside  the  box!  See  the  video  here.
