About He@rt in All of us
I always wanted to do something for the children of the developing countries.
My goal with this group is to awake interest in people about Funds, or other kind of fair trade organizations and to raise a collective on Flickr among those people who also care about the future of our children.
Heart in all of us: Unite For Children Of The Third World
Give or donate a photo of a child or more children to this group to show that you care about children all around the world!
Donation is not about having the copyrights to your photos. It is not meant literally.
If U don't know what to buy for people, who have almost everything, buy them the joy of giving gifts to people, who have almost nothing...

Some details about UNICEF:
The United Nations Children's Fund (or UNICEF) was created by the United Nations General Assembly on December 11, 1946, to provide emergency food and healthcare to children in countries that had been devastated by World War II. In 1953, UNICEF became a permanent part of the United Nations System and its name was shortened from the original United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund but it has continued to be known by the popular acronym based on this old name. Headquartered in New York City, UNICEF provides long-term humanitarian and developmental assistance to children and mothers in developing countries.
Did U know?
HIV/AIDS
15 million children are now orphaned due to AIDS. It is estimated that by the year 2010 in sub-Saharan Africa alone, more than 18 million children will have lost at least one parent to AIDS. Half of all new infections are people under the age of 25, with girls hit harder and younger than boys.
Child Pornography
UNICEF is also running several programs dedicated to controlling both online and off-line child pornography. Unicef is also trying to criminalize virtual pornography (including adults posing as children, fictional works including underaged characters such as Romeo and Juliet).
Halloween/Samhain and Trick-or-Treat UNICEF box
Since 1950 when a group of children in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania donated $17 they received on Halloween to help post-World War II victims, the Trick-or-Treat UNICEF box has become a tradition in North America during the haunting season. These small orange boxes are handed to children at schools and at various locations (such as Hallmark Gold Crown Stores) prior to October 31.
