What is the UNICEF Tap Project?
In 2007, the UNICEF Tap Project was born in New York City based on a simple, tangible and easy-to-implement concept: restaurants would ask their patrons to donate $1 or more for the tap water they usually enjoy for free, and all funds raised would support UNICEF's efforts to bring clean and accessible water to millions of children around the world.
When will the UNICEF Tap Project take place?
The UNICEF Tap Project takes place each year during World Water Week, which in 2011 is March 20 through March 26, encompassing March 22, the United Nations' World Water Day.
Why a campaign about clean water?
Because clean water is essential, yet nearly 900 million people worldwide lack access to it—and nearly half of those people are children. In alignment with the United Nations Millenium Development Goals, UNICEF is working with its partners to reduce the number of people without access to safe water and basic sanitation by 50% by 2015, which will also save children at risk from waterborne illnesses, the second highest cause of preventable childhood deaths. Every day, 4,100 children die from waterborne illnesses, and UNICEF is committed to doing whatever it takes to make that number zero.
