Background: The goal of Student UNICEF-UTSA is to bring awareness to the plight of children around the world suffering from hunger, disease, famine, war and extreme poverty. In raising awareness and funds to support UNICEF efforts and partnering with the community, the student group has recruited student and professional artists to contribute to the auction. The organization hopes to raise $2,000 through this effort.
