NEW YORK, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Colbeck Capital Management, a leading, middle-market private credit manager focused on strategic lending, are proud to support UNICEF's worldwide efforts to help children in extreme need. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) remains dedicated to giving all children a chance at a healthy life by providing services for healthcare, immunization, clean water, education, and other essentials. Additional organizational tenants include child survival, education, and emergency relief efforts designed to save lives.
UNICEF's work spans over 190 countries and strives to protect children in areas of conflict. Most recently, UNICEF's efforts have spread throughout Ukraine as conditions for residents and refugees worsen in light of current events. Child protection remains at the forefront of all UNICEF operations, which are fueled in large part by charitable donations like those made by Colbeck Capital Management. Donations are a lifeblood of the organization, of which less than three percent goes toward administrative costs, allowing donors and volunteers to make a direct impact on outcomes for children the world over.
With the worsening crisis in the Ukraine and the surrounding countries impacted by an influx of refugees, UNICEF is increasing efforts to deliver essential care in the region. Emergency interventions have included the transport of potable water to affected regions, delivery of health and hygiene supplies, and the provision of psychosocial care for those affected by the trauma of conflict and disaster.
Through UNICEF's efforts, lifesaving interventions are deployed across the globe along, with efforts to decrease child mortality dropping this critical rate by 60 percent since 1990. To this end, UNICEF collaborates with a number of global organizations to support early childhood and adolescent programs designed around essential needs including responding to outbreaks, bolstering health systems, and delivering emergency relief wherever needed.
