Day 313 - Supported UNICEF

UNICEF makes the world better for kids.

Rescue workers were struggling on Sunday to reach survivors of a powerful typhoon that killed an estimated 10,000 people and displaced more than 600,000 in the central Philippines.
The United Nations said some survivors had no food, water or medicine. Relief operations were hampered because roads, airports and bridges had been destroyed or were covered in wreckage, it said.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) works in more than 190 countries and territories to save and improve children's lives, providing health care and immunizations, clean water and sanitation, nutrition, education, emergency relief and more.

The U.S. Fund for UNICEF supports UNICEF's work through fundraising, advocacy and education in the United States. They're working toward the day when ZERO children die from preventable causes and every child has a safe and healthy childhood.

UNICEF estimates that more than 40 percent of those affected by the storm are children — up to 4 million may be at risk.  UNICEF is mobilizing all of its available resources to reach these children immediately.

So for today's random act of kindness I made a small donation to UNICEF to help support their efforts in the Philippines.  Praying for all those affected and all the rescue workers.
