Where Your Money Goes

All money raised through the UNICEF Tap Project has gone toward UNICEF’s water, sanitation, and hygiene programs. Since 2007, the UNICEF Tap Project has raised over $3 million for water and sanitation programs for children in Belize, the Central African Republic, Côte d’Ivoire, Guatemala, Haiti, Iraq, Togo, and Vietnam.

In Belize, thanks to UNICEF Tap Project donations, a 7 year-old boy named Juan now has the chance to drink water that won't leave him weak from parasites.
In Iraq, where years of instability weakened an already dismal water system, UNICEF Tap Project funds have helped to provide more than 80,000 children and women with water that won't make them sick.
In Cote D'Ivoire, the UNICEF Tap Project funded water pumps that mean that Suzanne and Claudia no longer have to walk 3 miles each morning to get to the nearest well—a chore that used to mean they often missed school.

UNICEF does whatever it takes to stop children dying from lack of access to clean, safe water and sanitation. That means UNICEF and its partners drill wells and install water pumps, help communities build latrines and teach lifesaving hygiene to schoolchildren, and truck safe water to children and families in emergencies.

UNICEF is committed to finding cost-effective, and environmentally sound solutions to all child survival threats—including those connected to water and sanitation. So UNICEF supports innovative programs like rainwater harvesting and affordable family water filters.
