Lettering

For the world's children. Food, clothing, education, protection from disease ... This is what children in many lands need desperately. This is what the United Nations, through its Specialized Agencies and its International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) helps to provide. A daily glass of milk, a school luncheon, a pair of shoes, a textbook or an anti-TB vaccine have made the U.N. a living reality to millions of youngsters throughout the world.
