UNICEF calls on Kiwis to create giant baby blanket this Mother’s Day
People all around New Zealand are being asked to knit or crochet at least one 20cm x
20cm square and send it to UNICEF in Wellington by 1 May. The squares will then
be stitched together to form a blanket of 1,400 squares. The 1,400 squares represent
the number of children under 15 years of age who contract HIV every day.
More information about the Unite for Mothers campaign, including knitting
instructions and an online petition, can be found at www.unicef.org.nz
