U.S. Fund for UNICEF Annual Report 2008

2008 Annual Report

2008 Annua l Repor t | U .S . Fund fo r UNICEF 1

When a child dies needlessly, the Earth should stop spinning. Because

the preventable death of a child — any child, anywhere — is unspeakable,

unacceptable. But every day, more than 25,000 children die from causes that

could have been averted. They die for want of a five-cent tetanus vaccine, or

safe water to drink, or enough food to keep them nourished. They die from

causes most people in the industrialized world rarely ever think about.

UNICEF has made significant headway against this grim toll. By doing whatever

it takes wherever it is needed, UNICEF has saved more children’s lives than any

other humanitarian organization.

In fact, UNICEF just announced some remarkable news: the number of

worldwide deaths of children under five has dropped to the lowest level ever,

9.2 million per year — or more than 25,000 per day. That’s a decline of 27

percent since 1990 and of more than 60 percent since 1960 — and it shows that

UNICEF’s child survival strategy is working.

Good news like this heralds even more progress for children in the future, if we

all work together. With your continued support, UNICEF and the U.S. Fund will

strive to roll back the number of needless child deaths all the way to zero.

2008: Believe in Zero


A Message from the Chair and the President

It’s been a truly momentous year here at the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. Thanks to

your commitment and generosity, we were able to make significant strides in the

fight for child survival.

All over the world, your contributions have helped UNICEF counter grave threats

to children, giving them the chance to thrive and grow.

After a cyclone lashed Myanmar — and then, ten days later, an earthquake hit

parts of China — you helped UNICEF speed medicines, clean water, and school

supplies to vulnerable children in both disaster zones.

In Haiti, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, and Eritrea — where the food crisis has fueled

deadly malnutrition — your support means that children can get the therapeutic

foods they need to survive.

In countries like Swaziland, Belize, Jamaica, and Nepal — where AIDS continues

to claim the lives of so many children and leave so many others orphaned — your

contributions have helped expand treatment, care, and prevention programs.

From Angola to Madagascar, Pakistan to the Philippines, your support helped

UNICEF deliver immunizations and other lifesaving health interventions to

children and families.

Your support enabled the U.S. Fund to reach a total revenue for fiscal year 2008

of nearly $450 million. With your help, we have seen great success. Thank you.

But we can’t stop now. Consider this: If you see ten children drowning … do you

stop and pat yourself on the back after you have rescued five … or do you refuse

to rest until zero children are in danger?

We believe in zero. Zero children dying from preventable causes.

Now let us join together and work toward a day when every child survives and

has a promising future.

Caryl M. Stern Anthony PantaleoniPresident and CEO Chair

Organized under the laws of New York State as a not-for-profit corporation, the U.S. Fund for UNICEF is exempt from tax under Section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is governed by an independent and non-salaried board of directors. The U.S. Fund for UNICEF qualifies for the maximum charitable contribution deduction by donors. U.S. Fund for UNICEF activities for the year ended June 30, 2008, are described in this report, which also includes a summary of financial highlights for the year.


UNICEF receives its funding from a vast spectrum of exclusively voluntary

contributions: a retiree sends $25 in response to a direct-marketing appeal; a

corporation reaches out to aid children whose lives have been upended by an

earthquake; a government allots $100 million or more to help fund child survival

programs. For calendar year 2007, the U.S. Government provided more than

$277 million in total funding to UNICEF, making it the largest single donor.

Your critical donations are put to smart and thoughtful use, saving and improving

children’s lives through innovative and low-cost methods. For instance, UNICEF

is one of the world’s largest buyers of insecticide-treated mosquito nets and

distributed over 18 million nets last year. This inexpensive intervention protects

children and their families from malaria-carrying mosquitoes and can reduce

cases of that deadly disease by 50 percent. UNICEF also reaches 55 percent of

the world’s children with lifesaving immunizations against other killer diseases

like measles and tetanus. In fact, due to the efforts of UNICEF and its partners,

measles deaths in Africa dropped by 91 percent between 2000 and 2006.

UNICEF partners with government ministries, corporations, foundations, and

humanitarian groups all over the world to aid children in emergencies and

to implement and maintain long-term, life-changing programs that improve

children’s health and well-being in over 150 countries.

With a staff of thousands of highly skilled professionals, UNICEF reaches

children who have nowhere to turn for assistance. Ninety percent of its

personnel work in the field: everywhere from enormous countries like China to

tiny islands like Samoa. These dedicated workers couldn’t carry out their duties

without the lifesaving tools of their trade — medicines, tents, blankets, bed

nets, water purification tablets, obstetric kits, therapeutic foods, educational kits,

vaccines. These materials and many others are disseminated through UNICEF’s

vast supply network, including its mammoth warehouse in Copenhagen and

hubs in Dubai, Panama, and Shanghai. UNICEF increased its procurement by

15 percent last year — acquiring a total of $1.4 billion worth of supplies that can

mean the difference between life and death for millions of children.

Getting It Done

UNICEF was founded in 1946 to help children in post-war Europe, China, and the Middle East. Today, as the United Nations Children’s Fund, it serves children and families in developing countries worldwide and depends entirely on voluntary contributions. The U.S. Fund was established in 1947, the first of 36 national committees set up globally to support UNICEF through fundraising, education, and advocacy. Since its inception, the U.S. Fund has provided UNICEF and various NGOs with more than $3.3 billion in cash and gifts-in-kind.


UNICEF’s mission is simple: give every child the basics for a safe and healthy

childhood. But threats to children in many parts of the world are so numerous,

so serious, and so persistent that getting the job done is often far from simple or

easy. UNICEF has the resolve to remain undaunted by war or conflict, disaster

or disease, geography or logistical complexity. Harnessing over 60 years of

experience as well as its trademark innovation, efficiency, and expertise, UNICEF

consistently meets challenges to child survival on many fronts. What follows is a

look at UNICEF’s primary program areas — along with examples of notable U.S.

Fund contributions and partnerships. Also included are some stories of children

and families whose lives have been transformed by UNICEF’s work.

UNICEF is the global leader in vaccine supply, successfully protecting more

than half of the world’s children from deadly diseases. Last year, it procured a

record 3.2 billion doses of vaccine worth $617 million. In Iraq, under difficult

and dangerous circumstances, UNICEF immunized more than 4 million children

against polio. In Pakistan, UNICEF delivered 64 million doses of measles vaccine.

While these are major feats, millions of children continue to go unvaccinated.

Millions more die from other preventable causes like malaria, diarrhea, and

pneumonia — illnesses that can often be averted with something as simple as a

$7.50 insecticide-treated bed net or a six-cent pack of oral rehydration salts.

Utilizing its extensive supply network, UNICEF distributes these and other

proven health interventions by any means available — via train, truck, plane,

boat, donkey, camel, motorcycle, and on foot — to reach children in the

most remote regions of the world. Through its Accelerated Child Survival and

Development program, UNICEF also works with governments,

non-governmental organizations, and community leaders to deliver health

services in a comprehensive package that includes childhood immunizations,

vitamin A supplementation, prenatal and postnatal care, and prevention and

treatment of disease.

The Pampers “One Pack = One Vaccine” Campaign

Each year, 140,000 babies and up to 30,000 mothers die from maternal and neonatal tetanus contracted due to unsanitary childbirth

procedures. But Pampers® — with help from award-winning actress and producer Salma Hayek — has joined UNICEF in trying

to change that. From April through August 2008, the Pampers “One Pack = One Vaccine” campaign donated the cost of a tetanus

vaccine (five cents) to the U.S. Fund each time a specially marked product was sold in the United States and Canada. To date, the

North American “One Pack = One Vaccine” campaign has already provided enough funding for over 45 million tetanus vaccines.

Pampers aims to raise funds to provide UNICEF with an additional 200 million vaccines over the next three years through the

global campaign.

Child Survival and Development | U.S. Fund Support = $35,508,322


A malnourished child is not merely hungry. Malnutrition — the debilitating

condition that results from not having sufficient vitamins, protein, and minerals

— can leave a child unable to develop properly, grow strong, or fight viral and

bacterial infections. In young children, malnutrition can transform a simple illness

or infection into a life or death situation. Every year, it plays a major role in more

than a third of the 9.2 million under-five child deaths that occur worldwide. When

malnutrition doesn’t kill outright, it can leave a child with irreversible health

problems like stunted growth, dulled intellectual capabilities, and blindness.

The current global food crisis has endangered the lives of millions of children

around the world as families who are already struggling to survive face soaring

food costs. UNICEF is combating malnutrition by providing essential vitamins

and micronutrients, as well as lifesaving therapeutic foods like Plumpy’nut®,

to help undernourished children gain weight. Plumpy’nut — a ready-to-use

peanut paste containing protein, minerals, and vitamins — has the power to

almost instantly bring a child back from the brink of starvation. In 2007, UNICEF

acquired $50 million worth of nutritional products to fight acute malnutrition,

doubling its procurement of ready-to-use therapeutic foods. These life-sustaining

supplies were delivered to 41 countries to help keep children nourished and

healthy.

Gabsile Mamba of Swaziland feared for her infant son Siyabonga’s life. The boy was vomiting, suffering from diarrhea,

and losing weight — fast. “At one point, I thought he was going to die,” whispered the twenty-two-year-old mother.

“I was very, very worried.” In 2007, Swaziland, a tiny land-locked country in Southern Africa, experienced its worst

drought in 15 years. The resulting food shortage took a stark toll on the country’s children. In response, UNICEF worked

with the government to establish therapeutic feeding centers throughout the country. A panicked Gabsile rushed her

son to one of these centers, where the boy was diagnosed with acute malnutrition. Nurses prescribed Plumpy’nut — a

high-protein therapeutic food supplied by UNICEF in collaboration with other partners — and soon, Siyabonga started to

get better. “I saw a lot of improvement,” Gabsile said. “I could see he was regaining weight.” Last May, inside a small mud-

brick home, a pudgy Siyabonga sat restlessly on his mother’s lap. Babbling and grabbing at anything within reach, he was

as fidgety and fussy as many thirteen-month-old babies. And for that, his mother is grateful.

Back from the Brink of Acute Malnutrition

Nutrition



Marjorie and Bob Schaffner

Marjorie and Bob Schaffner have been members of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF family since 2002, when Marjorie became the

Director of the Midwest Regional Office. Two years ago, Marjorie helped launch the Midwest Regional Office’s $6.2 million

campaign to support UNICEF’s Accelerated Child Survival and Development (ACSD) program. The ACSD initiative aims to

reduce child and maternal deaths through a comprehensive package of interventions including immunizations, prevention of disease,

and improved access to safe drinking water. After Marjorie retired in August 2007, she and Bob committed $75,000 to support the

campaign. In October of that year, the couple traveled to Rwanda to see first-hand how the ACSD strategy is saving children’s lives.

Moved by the experience, the Schaffners made another donation of $25,000 to specifically support UNICEF programs in Rwanda.

“This truly was a once in a lifetime gift for us,” Marjorie said. “But what greater privilege is there than to save a child’s life.”

Water is essential to life. Yet 1 billion people do not have a safe water supply,

and 2.6 billion people — nearly half of humanity — live without proper sanitation.

Every year, 1.5 million children die before their fifth birthday because they lack

clean water and adequate sanitation. UNICEF supports water, sanitation, and

hygiene programs in 93 countries and is recognized as a world leader in tackling

water problems. In 2007, UNICEF procured some $68 million worth of water

and sanitation supplies: everything from large, solar-powered well systems to

tiny purification tablets. Following the Myanmar cyclone, UNICEF rushed more

than 4.5 million of those tablets, as well as myriad other purification tools, to the

Irrawaddy Delta to avert an outbreak of waterborne diseases like cholera. Since

1990, thanks to the work of UNICEF and its partners, at least 1.2 billion people

have gained access to clean drinking water.

With innovations such as rainwater-harvesting systems and household water

treatment products, UNICEF finds creative and sustainable new ways to

make sure children and their families have a safe water supply. But there are

times when the immediate need is so great that emergency water tankering

interventions are the only solution. UNICEF supported tankering operations in

Iraq and in drought-ravaged areas of Africa — despite dangers posed by military

conflict — to ensure that children did not go without this essential resource.

Committed to Child Survival

Water and Sanitation



An estimated 300 million children bear the physical and emotional scars left

by violence, exploitation, and abuse suffered at the hands of adults. Some of

the grimmest stories emerge from the worst forms of child labor — including

grueling work in factories and mines — and from the experiences of child

soldiers and sex slaves. UNICEF uses its access and influence to work with

governments, non-governmental organizations, civil groups, and communities to

protect children from harm and ensure that their rights are upheld. It advocates

for legislation that safeguards children from abuse and exploitation, helps

establish monitoring systems that document and track cases of abuse, and

supports rehabilitation and recovery programs for victims.

In the wake of emergencies like the earthquake in Sichuan, China, UNICEF sets

up family tracing systems to register children separated from their parents and

creates protective centers known as “child-friendly spaces.” UNICEF also steps

in to aid children in the crosshairs of conflict, war, or other manmade disasters.

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other countries where the use of

sexual violence as a weapon of war has become systematic, UNICEF is pushing

for laws that protect girls and women and is helping survivors heal through

medical treatment, psychosocial counseling, schooling, and job skills training.

Gloria was just twelve when she and her brother were taken from their family home in rural Antioquia, Colombia, and press-

ganged into service as soldiers for an armed group. In conflict zones around the world, forcible recruitment of children by militias

and other armed factions is horrifyingly common, and youngsters who should be going to school and playing with friends find

themselves marching with rifles and fighting for their lives. Frequently, girls like Gloria become the victims of sexual assault

as well. After two years, Gloria was able to escape. But for many child soldiers, freedom does not mean their ordeal has ended;

they are deeply traumatized by all they have seen and endured. UNICEF helps former child soldiers recover with counseling and

job skills training. In Colombia, Gloria was able to enter a UNICEF-supported program that provided her with support from a

psychosocial team as well as a monthly economic stipend, so she could begin to put her life back together.

For more than a quarter-century, the AIDS epidemic has preyed upon young

and old alike, hampering development and shredding the fabric of whole

communities. Though important progress has been made in combating AIDS,

the disease is still just as merciless today — and millions of children remain in

its path. In 2007, an estimated 2.1 million children under the age of fifteen were

living with HIV, and 290,000 died of AIDS. UNICEF and the U.S. Fund have placed

children center stage in the fight against the virus, committing millions of dollars

to prevention, care, and treatment. In 2007, UNICEF delivered medicines and

other HIV/AIDS-related supplies to more than 65 countries.

UNICEF’s efforts — along with those of its many partners — have yielded some

heartening results. At the end of 2007, nearly 500,000 women were able to

receive antiretroviral therapy (ART) to prevent transmission of the virus to their

unborn children — up from 350,000 in 2006. Also last year, 197,000 children were

receiving ART, compared to 127,000 in 2006. Despite these improvements, the

vast majority of those in need of treatment are still not getting it. Meanwhile,

AIDS continues to take hundreds of thousands of young lives each year and to

rob millions of children not only of their parents, but also of teachers, role models,

and future opportunities. Protecting these children is a major UNICEF priority.

In collaboration with governments and communities, UNICEF supports children

affected by AIDS with counseling, nutritious meals, health care, and education.

Three years ago, Rita Jiriko arrived at the Primary Care Clinic in Garaku, Nigeria, to give birth to her first child. The young

mother-to-be fretted not only about her labor, but also about the condition of the clinic. At the time, the health facility was housed

in a dilapidated building and had only one bed. “Many pregnant women stayed away from the clinic,” Rita recalled. But thanks to

UNICEF’s Accelerated Child Survival and Development (ACSD) strategy, the Garaku Clinic has since received a major overhaul.

The five-room primary health care facility is now adequately staffed and offers comprehensive services like prenatal care,

immunization, and voluntary HIV testing. The clinic provides free insecticide-treated bed nets and disease prevention classes to

pregnant women and new moms. Rita appreciates the refurbished facility and its improved services. Her baby has been immunized

against polio, and she has benefited from the clinic’s classes. “I have learned how to prepare oral rehydration salt solution for

my children when they have diarrhea, how to protect them from mosquito bites, and how important immunization is,” Rita said.

“I didn’t know about these things before.”

Education is the key to progress. It unlocks children’s potential and is an

investment in the future of the economy and social advancement of developing

countries. Though great improvements have been made in recent years,

93 million youths still miss out on the opportunity to attend school — that is

the equivalent of all the children in the United States, Canada, and the United

Kingdom combined. UNICEF helps build and improve schools and supports

learning programs around the globe to help children everywhere get a quality

education.

In Southern Sudan, the UNICEF-supported “Go to School” campaign has helped

over 1 million children find their way back to the classroom after decades of civil

war and upheaval. UNICEF rebuilt schools, trained thousands of teachers, and

delivered millions of school bags, books, pencils, and other essential learning and

teaching tools to Southern Sudan by truck, boat, and even on foot.

In India, children who live on the streets or in great poverty now have access

to school, thanks to Mobile Learning Centers — buses specially designed by

UNICEF and equipped with laptop computers, audio-visual equipment, and a

full range of teaching and learning materials. In total in 2007, UNICEF provided

over 12 million students and more than 100,000 teachers with indispensable

educational kits and supplies.

Ford Foundation and Lanza Family Foundation

Vietnam is home to a disproportionately large number of people with disabilities, including those who may have been affected

by exposure to dioxin from Agent Orange. There are 1.2 million disabled Vietnamese children, according to a 2004 government

estimate. Last April, the U.S. Fund announced a campaign to raise funds to help UNICEF provide quality health care and education

to these vulnerable children. U.S. Fund President and CEO Caryl M. Stern, board Chair Anthony Pantaleoni, and board members

Peter Lamm and Téa Leoni had visited Vietnam the previous month, along with a representative of the Ford Foundation. Ford, which

has supported efforts to address the effects of Agent Orange since 2000, awarded the U.S. Fund $1 million to aid disabled Vietnamese

children. U.S. Fund donors matched Ford’s generous grant dollar for dollar. Among them was philanthropist Pat Lanza. After meeting

with Stern and Pantaleoni, Lanza and the Lanza Family Foundation committed $500,000 to support this critical program.

Helping Disabled Children in Vietnam

Education



In the last decade, millions of children have died as a result of emergencies, and

countless others have been physically and emotionally damaged by the violence

and chaos of natural and manmade disasters. When it comes to helping children

in emergencies, it’s not just that UNICEF gets there fast — it’s that UNICEF

is there already. With permanent programs in so many countries, UNICEF can

instantly deploy pre-positioned supplies, giving children and their families a

crucial lifeline of aid to see them through the crisis. In Myanmar, where UNICEF

has been working for more than 50 years, field staff began responding to

Cyclone Nargis while the brutal storm was still tearing through the Irrawaddy

Delta. Just over a week later, UNICEF helped survivors of the massive China

earthquake — delivering relief supplies, including 16 tons of tents, 15,000

blankets, and 60,000 school kits.

Before an emergency even develops, UNICEF is often able to anticipate where

and how it will respond thanks to its one-of-a-kind operations center (OPSCEN)

— an extraordinary information and communications hub at its headquarters in

New York City. Each minute of every day, members of OPSCEN’s multilingual

staff monitor potential catastrophes — everything from foreboding weather

patterns to humanitarian crises to political unrest around the world.

Twelve-year-old Saw Leh Ler Shee was going to the grocery store for his mother when Cyclone Nargis barreled down on Myanmar.

As the monstrous storm began to flatten houses all around him, Ler Shee clung to a tree, where he rode out the cyclone through the

long night. In the morning, he walked back home — past dead bodies and wrecked buildings — only to find his house destroyed

and his family gone. Eventually, Ler Shee reunited with his grandmother and aunt, and they made their way to one of the many

UNICEF-supported child-friendly spaces established after the cyclone. Child-friendly spaces are community safe havens staffed

by teachers, psychologists, and social workers, where kids can play, learn, recover from trauma and — perhaps most importantly

— just be kids. “I like playing football the most,” said Ler Shee, who feared that he lost his brother, sister, and both of his parents

to the storm. UNICEF helped Ler Shee and hundreds of other children in Myanmar and earthquake-affected China to trace family

members. And Ler Shee felt safe and comfortable at the child-friendly space. “I like it here,” he said. “I don’t want to go back to

the village anymore, because many people died and there will be a lot of ghosts there.”

A Safe Haven After the Storm

With an extensive global supply network that reaches more than 150 countries,

UNICEF is uniquely equipped to save and improve children’s lives in every

corner of the globe. And because of its influence and reach, UNICEF is able

to overcome not just physical barriers, but political and cultural ones as well.

UNICEF throughout the World


More than 2,200 volunteers joined the Tap Project (see page 27), contributing an estimated 60,000 hours to recruit •

restaurants, promote the campaign in their local communities, and dine at participating restaurants.

Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, the U.S. Fund’s flagship fundraising campaign, has raised over $144 million to date in the U.S. One •

of the nation’s longest running youth philanthropy programs, it is often a child’s first experience with volunteerism and helping

others. This year’s campaign raised money to help support UNICEF’s global programs with the aid of thousands of children,

parents, teachers, community and faith-based groups, and corporations around the nation.

Our Office of Public Policy and Advocacy in Washington, D.C., leads a citizens’ campaign every year to help secure the U.S. •

Government’s annual contribution to UNICEF. And thanks in part to these dynamic efforts, Congress approved a $129 million

contribution in fiscal year 2008 — its highest funding recommendation ever for UNICEF. In addition, advocacy activity with the

U.S. Coalition for Child Survival and the non-profit grassroots organization RESULTS helped the U.S. Fund secure further

congressional funding for bilateral maternal and child health programs. Advocacy collaboration with Rotary International and

Kiwanis International helped ensure appropriations for polio eradication and iodine deficiency elimination campaigns.

The U.S. Fund’s Campus Initiative continues to expand. On over 65 U.S. campuses, club members support UNICEF’s work by •

conducting panel discussions, fundraising for specific programs, raising awareness of UNICEF’s work, and creating grassroots

engagement in support of UNICEF activities.

Over 15,000 people are registered as volunteers through the U.S. Fund’s Online Volunteer Center. Volunteers conduct •

fundraisers, organize Halloween parties, host book clubs discussing issues related to child survival, respond to advocacy

alerts, and more.

A first-ever national pilot study group for the U.S. Fund focused on the effectiveness of TeachUNICEF lesson plans in the •

classroom. The group consisted of middle and high school students from across the country using lesson plans on the topics

of child labor, poverty, and the impact of armed conflict. The successful results led to the refinement of lesson plans based on

UNICEF’s annual flagship publication, The State of the World’s Children. Ninety-seven percent of the teachers responded that

they would likely use the materials in the future, and 65 percent of the students stated that they would take action with the

information they learned.

For the second year in a row, the U.S. Fund for UNICEF recruited, tutored, and accompanied an enthusiastic group of young •

people who participated in the Junior 8 Summit held at the time of the G8 Summit in Hokkaido, Japan. The U.S. Fund for

UNICEF team worked closely with their counterparts from the G8 countries, as well as young participants from the developing

world, to hammer out an international plan of action focused on climate change and improving foreign aid.

The U.S. Fund’s total public support and revenue this year reached nearly $450 million. What follows is a bird’s-eye

view of this year’s extraordinary fundraising activities.

For a more extensive roster of U.S. Fund contributors, please refer to the supporter lists that begin on page 30. In

addition, for a comprehensive look at contributions by category and type, please see page 29.

Corporations remained pivotal strategic partners in support of UNICEF programs. • Gucci continued its annual Holiday Campaign

to Benefit UNICEF, in which the company donated a percentage of sales from select items to support UNICEF. The company

also presented an unprecedented star-studded fundraising event in New York, hosted by Madonna, which raised over $2.6

million for the U.S. Fund. Both initiatives supported UNICEF programs for orphans and children made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS.

• Pampers’ “One Pack = One Vaccine” international initiative to help protect women and their newborn babies from tetanus

was launched in the U.S. and Canada in the spring of 2008 (see page 9 for more information).

The• GE Foundation extended its commitment to UNICEF through an additional $700,000 for emergency relief in Darfur.

U.S. Fund corporate partners once again offered generous product support this year. In particular, • Merck provided its medicine

Mectizan for the treatment of river blindness; it also contributed vaccines to fight a mumps outbreak in Moldova. Pfizer

increased its donations of the antibiotic Zithromax to treat trachoma, a leading cause of preventable blindness.

In 2007, • American Express unveiled The Members Project®, which brought American Express Cardmembers from across

the country together to vote on one project concept they wanted American Express to fund. The winning idea: supply safe

drinking water to millions of children in the developing world. UNICEF was selected to bring the idea to life, with a $2 million

donation to the U.S. Fund from American Express.

A Great Year for Children

It has been a great year for children — a year in which the U.S. Fund for UNICEF embarked on exciting new campaigns

and expanded existing ones, a year in which we welcomed important new partners, and a year in which the exceptional

generosity of our supporters has enabled us to fund so many of the essential programs described in this report.

What follows beginning on this page is a look at some of this year’s creative educational programs, public information

initiatives, and advocacy campaigns that raise awareness about child survival and support UNICEF’s global work. On

pages 25-27, you will find highlights of the year’s fundraising initiatives, which have provided key assistance to UNICEF’s

lifesaving programs.

We thank all of our donors and partners for helping UNICEF do whatever it takes to save children’s lives all over the world.

Overall this year, the U.S. Fund received donations, large and small, from more than 500,000 individual contributors. An •

anonymous donor contributed $5 million in unrestricted funds to support UNICEF programs worldwide. This is the largest

unrestricted gift from an individual to the U.S. Fund in our 60-year history. More than 380 major individual donors contributed

$10,000 or more in fiscal year 2008 — a 10 percent increase from fiscal year 2007. Total giving from this important group of

supporters increased by $3.4 million — from $14.4 million last year to $17.8 million in fiscal year 2008. In addition, the U.S.

Fund received bequest contributions totaling more than $10.5 million.

Individual donors participated in a wide variety of educational events this year. Groups of individual supporters from around the •

country traveled to Angola, Brazil, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Rwanda to see UNICEF’s lifesaving work firsthand. Closer to home,

donors participated in a record 67 events nationwide, which took place in 22 cities including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver,

Houston, Los Angeles, New York, and Seattle. The events ranged from spectacular galas to in-depth luncheon discussions

with global leaders and UNICEF staffers from around the world. The U.S. Fund was also proud to host three events for major

donors at its new office space in New York City’s Financial District, including an intimate luncheon with President and CEO

Caryl M. Stern, who spoke movingly about her recent experiences in Darfur and Vietnam.

The U.S. Fund website, www.unicefusa.org, was redesigned to expand the functions offered to visitors. The revamped site •

includes new features, personalization options, tools for social bookmarking, and personal fundraising pages. This year, the

website generated more than $11.8 million in online donations.

The lighting of the UNICEF Snowflakes in New York City and Beverly Hills kicked off yet another wonderful holiday season. •

And the celebration continued, with two black-tie galas that collectively raised a total of $4.25 million for UNICEF’s work in

the field. This was an exceptional year: Hallmark Cards became the Snowflake Project’s first national sponsor, signing on

with a $200,000 donation, and Tiffany & Co. supported the New York Snowflake lighting with a donation and cause-marketing

partnership that totaled $150,000, plus in-kind donations.

Partnerships with non-governmental organizations yielded significant results this year. • Malaria No More (MNM), an

organization dedicated to ending malaria deaths, provided $3 million in a challenge grant for insecticide-treated bed nets and

other malaria interventions in Africa. Our donors responded generously, returning more than $3 million. Children and expectant

mothers in Angola, Liberia, Tanzania, and Mozambique benefited from the bed nets provided by MNM’s grant and the

matching funds. MNM also made a grant of $2 million for programs in Tanzania, and an additional grant of $165,000 for nets

and distribution support in Madagascar.

For 57 years, millions of children and adults have participated in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF (TOT), the U.S. Fund for UNICEF’s •

signature campaign. In 2007, thousands of trick-or-treaters, teachers, parents, communities, groups, and corporations helped

raise more than $4 million. Key Club International continued to support Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF by raising funds to help

children in Swaziland, and Cartoon Network returned as the national premier sponsor. Procter & Gamble once again served

as national sponsor, contributing $250,000 and featuring TOT and UNICEF in its P&G brandSAVER™ insert distributed to over

57 million households nationwide.

The innovative Tap Project, which asks diners at participating restaurants to pay $1 for the tap water they would normally get •

for free, expanded last year from a New York pilot program to an exciting national campaign. More than 2,300 restaurants in

44 states took part in Tap, which raised $555,000 in the U.S. to support UNICEF’s lifesaving water and sanitation programs. In

New York, more than 500 youths supported Tap by participating in the NYC Water Walk.

Foundation partnerships remain an important source of support for the U.S. Fund. • The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

provided more than $3.9 million for malaria research and prevention programs as well as humanitarian emergencies in West

Africa. American Idol’s Charity Projects Entertainment Fund donated $6 million to support UNICEF child survival and

education programs in sub-Saharan Africa. The Ford Foundation awarded the U.S. Fund $1 million to aid children in Vietnam

living with disabilities. Ford’s generous grant was matched dollar for dollar by U.S. Fund donors, doubling the amount of

support for these vulnerable children. Other key supporters included the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund, the Kind World

Foundation, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, The ELMA Philanthropies, The Ceil and Michael E. Pulitzer Foundation,

and The Summit Foundation.

UNICEF greeting cards and products accounted for more than $3.2 million in net revenue this year. Long-term partners • Pier 1

Imports and IKEA U.S. once again sold UNICEF holiday greeting cards in their nationwide stores and gave 100 percent of sale

proceeds to the U.S. Fund. For the first time, Barnes & Noble sold UNICEF cards year-round in their stores across the country.

The United States Fund for UNICEF SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS PUBLIC SUPPORT, REVENUE, EXPENSES, AND NET ASSETS

Note 1

Through the Office of Public Policy and Advocacy in Washington, D.C., the U.S.

Fund for UNICEF acts as an advocate for the well-being of the world’s children.

One of the specific functions of the Public Policy Office is to advise both the

administration and Congress about the importance of the voluntary contributions

made to UNICEF by the U.S. Government. The U.S. Fund for UNICEF’s efforts

in this regard helped to get Congress to direct the U.S. Government to allocate

$129 million to UNICEF in 2008. This funding is provided directly to UNICEF

and is not reflected as Revenue in the Summary of Financial Highlights. Related

expenses are included in total program services.

Unrestricted net assets are used to account for public support that is

unrestricted in nature. Temporarily restricted net assets are used to

account for contributions that have donor-imposed restrictions that have

not been fulfilled either in time or by purpose. Permanently restricted

net assets are utilized to account for true endowments, whereby the

donor has permitted the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to use the income for

operations but has prohibited the use of principal. Temporarily restricted

net assets will be used to fund various projects such as the Global

Mercury Emergency Fund, support for HIV/AIDS, Education, Child

Survival, and the campaign to eliminate Global Malaria.

Note 3

This summary was prepared by the U.S. Fund for UNICEF from its

financial statements, which were audited by KPMG, LLP. The complete

financial statements, including the related notes and auditor’s report, are

available upon request.

Note 2

The U.S. Fund for UNICEF has total net assets of $41.1 million that consist of: Amount $

Fiscal Year 2007/2008 represented the third year that the U.S. Fund for UNICEF has been engaged

in strengthening its internal control documentation and testing intended to address many of the best

practices essential to maintaining and strengthening effective internal controls and procedures.

The financial summary on page 29 represents highlights from the U.S. Fund for UNICEF’s financial

statements, which were audited by KPMG. A complete set of the financial statements, including the

related notes with auditors’ opinion, is available upon request. This is our first year with KPMG, and we

are confident that our relationship will result in continued improvement in documentation and application

of solid controls and financial processes.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, in concert with U.S. Fund management and its internal

auditor, continues to focus on matters of compliance, accountability, and risk that could affect the

internal control systems of the organization.

Under the direction of the Audit Committee, U.S. Fund management and the internal auditor have

again implemented testing of internal control effectiveness, the findings of which are reported back to

the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis. In addition, we have applied the same rigor in reviewing our

Information Technology systems.

We believe that the existing internal controls of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, combined with the

enhancements we are implementing and our periodic testing, provide reasonable assurance regarding

the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

We are deeply grateful to our donors for their incredible generosity and personal involvement in UNICEF’s growing child survival

mission. Every contribution, great or small, means a lifeline for children and their families — clean water, vital health care, better

nutrition, opportunities for education, protection from abuse and exploitation, and emergency help in times of crisis. With your help,

we can reach a day when zero children die of preventable causes.

Believe in the possibility of zero.

Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF Supporters2007 marked the 57th year for the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF campaign. Thousands of kids, schools, and NGO, faith-based, and community group members, as well as Key Club International members and corporate partners such as Procter & Gamble raised more than $4 million for Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. In addition, countless Delegates ($500-$999), Ambassadors ($1,000-$2,999) and Emissaries ($3,000-$9,999) showed their support for Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF this year. Seven top fundraising schools and individuals contributed $10,000 or more. A complete list of the 2007-2008 top donors can be found at unicefusa.org/celebratetot.
