United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund
UNICEF was originally created in 1946 to provide emergency food and health care services to children in Europe. Since then it has become a permanent part of the UN system. Along with continuing to provide children world wide with food and health care services, UNICEF is also tasked with upholding the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
