Some very important people were recently honored here in our New York office: the winners of the Pier 1/UNICEF/Weekly Reader greeting card contest! Here they are with U.S. Fund for UNICEF President Caryl Stern: Karen Hong (age 13), Shone Williams (age 8), and Josephine Kao (age 11).
The cards they designed will be sold exclusively at Pier 1 Imports stores through the holiday season. Each pack of ten cards costs $10, and Pier 1 is donating 100% of the sale price to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF! So your money goes directly towards helping save children’s lives.
UNICEF started selling greeting cards in 1949, when a 7-year-old girl gave a painting to UNICEF to express her gratitude for the aid given to her war-torn Czech village. Congratulations to our young winners, who are carrying on this tradition.
