Recently, I travelled to Poughkeepsie, New York to give a presentation to a group of students who are members of the Rotary International Interact Club. Each year, the Interact students pick an international project to support, and this year they chose UNICEF’s School-in-a-Box.
After a warm introduction from the principal, the Interact district advisor and the student president, I gave a presentation on UNICEF School-in-a-Box, while also highlighting the U.S. Fund for UNICEF’s longstanding partnership with Rotary International. I talked about the impact that School-in-a-Box has had all over the world, and shared photos and stories about the School-in-a-Box kits used in Pakistan, Haiti and beyond.
