I am #StoppingEbola
West Africa is experiencing the deadliest outbreak of the Ebola virus in history. An estimated 8.5 million children live in Ebola-affected areas, and more than 11,000 children have lost one or both parents to the deadly disease. Ebola can be stopped, but we must act now.
During Black History Month, the U.S. Fund for UNICEF teamed up with African American churches and religious organizations across the U.S. to help stop Ebola. The joint initiative, I AM #STOPPINGEBOLA, raised funds to provide lifesaving hygiene kits to children and families in Liberia, one of the West African countries hardest hit by the deadly virus.
A simple UNICEF hygiene kit has been a first line of defense for children and their families. Each kit contains gloves, gowns, masks, soap, chlorine and other essential items to fight the disease.
Help save lives. Join us in #STOPPING EBOLA.
