Clinton Foundation and UNICEF launch Tsunami Water and Sanitation Fund

Partnership to Address Emergency Need for Safe Water and Clean Sanitation As Well As Long-Term Health and Development of Families

Former U.S. President Bill Clinton and UNICEF Executive Director Carol Bellamy today announced the creation of a joint initiative that will bring safe drinking water and sanitation systems to children and families affected by the Indian Ocean tsunami.

The Tsunami Water and Sanitation Fund, a joint project of the Clinton Foundation and UNICEF, will strengthen UNICEF’s efforts to prevent the spread of water-borne diseases in tsunami-ravaged areas. The partnership is a response to and a part of the nationwide fundraising initiative launched last week by U.S. President George Bush and former Presidents George H. W. Bush and Clinton in support of relief and reconstruction activities in areas devastated by the tsunami.
