In this times of lockdown I see that Wargames Illustrated are producing a two weeklyish Bite-size magazine of 70 pages, it can be bought by anyone for £2.00 GBP (with £1.50 GBP going to UNICEF) or free to subscribers/Prime members.
Really impressed with it!

Wasn't there a child sex scandal at UNICEF last year? link You'd think you could find a better charity. |

Considering the scale of UNICEF's operations, and the benefits, is that scandal a justification for completely cutting off support? |

Misconduct is always going to occur. The organization's response tells whether it's worth supporting. The linked article shows the appropriate response. |

No thanks, I do not support anything from the UN. I will give to other charities. |

ZULUPAUL – from the Unicef website: "Accountability
Unicef UK is a charity, entirely funded by our supporters. We receive no money from the UN budget." |
