Get Fired Up Amigos de los Ninos!

TODAY we kick-off our campaign to UNICEF!

We are requesting the immediate support of The Guatemalan PGN (Attorney General’s Office) and UNICEF to fulfill our mission to get as many children home as possible by the end of the year.  Some of these kids are the legal children of US citizens and possess US Visas, and still, they are held up by bureaucratic delay and unable to join the loving families who have been awaiting them for over 2 years.

We need to flood the UNICEF emails with our Battle Cry!

TODAY:

PLEASE EMAIL THIS LETTER!

Sign your name (if you are a family in waiting, you may want to add a personal message as well).

Send the email to:
-Ann Veneman, Executive Director of UNICEF, Aveneman@unicef.org

Cc the following:
-Ceryl Stern, Executive Director, US Fund for UNICEF, Cstern@unicefusa.org
-Michael Regan, Director of Office of Children’s Issues, ReganMB@state.gov
-Patrick McCormick, UNICEF NY, pmccormick@unicef.org
-Christopher de Bono, UNICEF NY, cdebono@unicef.org

If you have multiple accounts, send multiple emails, and please shout this out to anyone who wants to help. Don’t forget to post us on your social networks (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)  We need our collective voice to be heard loud and clear to make a difference!

Why UNICEF?
UNICEF is known to be the world’s most respected child aid
organization.  In reality, this is not so.  Because of UNICEF and
others, international adoptions from Guatemala were ended,
leaving thousands of innocent children a year with no chance for a
decent life.  UNICEF endorses legislation worldwide that severely
restricts a woman’s right to choose an adoption plan for her child
as well as her right to privacy. Unfortunately, UNICEF offers
little advice on how countries like Guatemala should care for the
children who would otherwise live secure lives with a loving
family.  (Guatadopt.com, October 2009)

All of this information and instructions on how to help is posted on www.guatemala900.org as well as www.futurodelosninos.org
