Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF featured on Univision’s “Despierta America”
Despierta America, Univision’s Spanish language morning television show spoke with UNICEF USA’s Community Engagement Fellow, Lis-Marie Alvarado about Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, the original kids helping kids program that focuses on improving the lives of children around the globe.
Many children in South Florida chose to support UNICEF’s work by going door to door this Halloween to raise money for children around the world suffering from malnutrition, lack of safe water, in need of immunizations, child protection and more. Several children spoke about how important it was to them to help children in need.
HOW TO HELP
There are many ways to make a difference
War, famine, poverty, natural disasters — threats to the world's children keep coming. But UNICEF won't stop working to keep children healthy and safe.
UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories — more places than any other children's organization. UNICEF has the world's largest humanitarian warehouse and, when disaster strikes, can get supplies almost anywhere within 72 hours. Constantly innovating, always advocating for a better world for children, UNICEF works to ensure that every child can grow up healthy, educated, protected and respected.
