About Unite for Children, Unite Against AIDS
UNICEF's Unite for Children, Unite Against AIDS campaign is a global
initiative that responds to the lack of attention given to the needs of
children and adolescents within the context of the pandemic. In Canada,
our goal is to raise funds for UNICEF's work while fostering corporate
social responsibility, encouraging increased pediatric AIDS research
and development, and advocating for an elevated commitment to children
within the Canadian government's AIDS funding.
