Children are the Future

The information that was relevant to my current profession development was the email I received from  UNICEF.  During the first two years of life, a child's body will go through the most miraculous phase of development. Eyes new to the world awaken to light and color. Muscles slowly begin to obey commands to reach, to kick and to smile. For the first time ever, a child will feel something called hope.

This is a time of great wonder, but it is also a time of great vulnerability. What children drink is especially critical. Since young bodies contain and use more water than adults, the quality of that water can be a matter of life and death. In Syria, Iraq, Nepal and all over the world, children desperately need water, food, and medical supplies.

"The George Harrison Fund for UNICEF is a joint undertaking between the Harrison family and the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to support UNICEF programs that provide lifesaving assistance to children, including health, education, nutrition and emergency relief. In the tradition established by George Harrison and Ravi Shankar, The George Harrison Fund for UNICEF continues to support UNICEF programs in Bangladesh while expanding its influence to include other countries where children are in need" (http://www.unicefusa.org/).

I have gotten in depth information and stories about different countries about what families go through to survive and get assistance. It is great when emails come through about donations and stories about different children and the help they need to get them a better future. It is amazing what these organizations do so much to make these young children's life better with the help of different partners and individuals like me to help the families.
