Thanks for your inspiring reminder. Maybe I am too jaded, but I  
wonder how much letters really help. There is clearly an agenda here.  
I'm happy to write, I guess I just need a pep talk that it's worth  
the effort.

Also, what is the process for choosing a UNICEF director? How will  
writing to our representatives help?

Thanks,
   Naomi Bar-Yam
