We hope you will enjoy this video invitation for the 2022 Chefs for the UNICEF Water for Life Gala and videos from past Galas.
Join UNICEF for the 2022 Water for Life Gala!
UNICEF Canada’s Annual Chefs for UNICEF Water for Life Gala will take place in person on April 20, 2022, bringing the Halifax community back together to support the world’s children.
The Water for Life Gala features some of the best chefs in Nova Scotia with food inspired by countries around the world. Participate in our amazing auction that showcases over 120 items to bid on, and enjoy live music and a moving guest speaker who will share the importance of UNICEF’s work and the impact of your support.
Children urgently need our help. The fallout from COVID-19 has reversed years of progress on children’s rights, and has amplified the need to continue UNICEF’s important work focused on safe water, sanitation and hygiene – which also enables access to education. The solidarity of the community in supporting these life-changing programs is more important than ever.
Through the generosity of many donors, UNICEF leads innovative initiatives to bring life-saving water to all children.

Donate NowBUY A WATER PUMP
A single water pump can change the lives of 150 children in a local community and helps improve overall health and sanitation. The water pump is a gift that will continue to give for up to 10 years, supplying safe water for drinking, handwashing, bathing and household use. A local water source means that girls who typically miss school to collect water will have their right to an education fulfilled, and a chance at a brighter future.
