UNICEF is the United Nations agency established to guarantee the rights and protection of children regardless of race, creed, nationality or faith. It has been operating worldwide for 50 years.

The lack of drinking water and separate access to decent sanitation facilities in schools discourages children, especially girls, from attending school, in many cases causing them to leave school altogether. Girls form the majority of the 120 million children of school age who do not go to school.
UNICEF works in more than 90 countries to improve access to drinking water and sanitation facilities in schools and promote good hygiene practices.

In emergency situations, UNICEF provides aid to communities and nations suffering from disease and those whose water supply is threatened. All of UNICEF’s water and sanitation programmes have been designed to comply with the hygiene and sanitation standards contained in the Millennium Development Goals, one of which is to halve the number of people without access to drinking water.

Funds of this initiative are going to be donated to Intermón Oxfam, the Spanish member of the international confederation Oxfam. Intermón Oxfam is a Spanish NGO that has been operating for over 50 years. It is currently behind 492 projects in Africa, America and Asia, and works in a number of fields, including cooperation for development, humanitarian action, fair trade and political mobilisation campaigns.

For this fundamental reason, it helps boys and girls exercise their basic right to a quality education by means of support programmes for children and their families that offer real solutions to improve their quality of life and development.
