As an H-4 dependent student, I have personally experienced how circumstances beyond a child’s control can affect their opportunities and future. This perspective makes UNICEF’s mission deeply meaningful to me. By starting a UNICEF Club at Eastlake High School, I hope to raise awareness, fundraise, and empower students at our school to take part in making a difference for children everywhere.

The UNICEF Club is not just any school club; it is a student-led organization committed to supporting UNICEF’s mission of advocating for the rights and well-being of children worldwide. Our club will focus on raising awareness about the global issues affecting children, such as access to education, healthcare, and protection from violence and exploitation. We aim to organize engaging and educational fundraising events that will directly support UNICEF’s vital programs around the globe.

Joining our UNICEF Club will provide students with the opportunity to learn about international humanitarian challenges and engage in meaningful service projects. Our goal is to foster a generation of informed and empowered individuals who are passionate about making a positive impact both locally and globally. Through collaborative efforts, we can cultivate a deeper understanding of the complexities and urgencies of childhood adversities worldwide.

To make this vision a reality, we need your support. By approving and encouraging the establishment of a UNICEF Club at Eastlake High School, you are investing in a future that prioritizes the rights and well-being of children everywhere. Students, teachers, and community members, please sign this petition to help us launch the UNICEF Club and contribute to a profoundly impactful cause. Your signature is not just an approval—it's a step towards igniting change and building a better future for children in need.

Sign the petition and be part of a movement that empowers youth to champion children's rights worldwide. Together, we can make a difference, starting right here in Sammamish, WA.
