Our Mission Statement
Penn for UNICEF is a student-led organization at the University of Pennsylvania committed to promoting the rights and well-being of children worldwide. Guided by UNICEF’s mandate from the United Nations General Assembly, we advocate for children’s rights and work to meet their basic needs.
Our initiatives center on four key areas:
- Fundraising: Supporting UNICEF’s global impact through events such as film screenings, bake sales, and cultural programs.
- Advocacy: Using our voices to champion children’s issues at the local, state, and national levels.
- Community Building: Promoting UNICEF’s mission while fostering collaboration within the Penn and Philadelphia communities.
- Education: Raising awareness of global challenges—such as gender equality, human trafficking, and public health—through campaigns and campus initiatives.
Together, we empower students to take meaningful action and create lasting change in the lives of children everywhere.
