This month, we’ve been focusing a lot of our efforts on the Global Fund and their great work in the fight against HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.

We're thrilled to announce that Pau Gasol & UNICEF have been selected as the winners in the National Basketball Association's first-ever Charity Challenge!

When we started our social media efforts, we knew it would provide us with a great way to communicate with like-minded individuals interested in UNICEF’s work. It has been a wonderful channel to speak directly with our volunteers and inform the masses of the work that’s being done for the world’s children.

However, nothing could prepare us for the overwhelming response we’ve received over the past few days. The generosity of the community coming together to help those affected by the earthquake in Haiti is nothing short of incredible.

With only four more days til Halloween, here's an update on what you can still do to participate!
