2023—UNICEF National Ambassador Gary Valenciano invites everyone to join hands in helping to create a better future for vulnerable children this Christmas season through UNICEF Cards, featuring iconic works by renowned artist, Mauro “Malang” Santos. "A lot of children both globally and in the Philippines are facing different forms of crisis. Let's come together this Christmas, share the joy, and make a lasting impact on their lives. With every UNICEF Card, we're one step closer to ensuring every child gets the protection and support they need to live life to the fullest,” Gary said.

The UNICEF Cards feature two of Malang’s masterful works from his family’s private collection: Family in Barrio (1967) and Vendors (1998). Malang is a celebrated Filipino cartoonist, illustrator, and painter known for his colorful depictions of Filipino life.

For a donation of P1,000, you can get a set of 10 cards, featuring five of each of Malang’s artworks. By sharing a meaningful gift this Christmas, you can make a lasting difference in children’s lives and help them get access to education, health and nutrition, protection, and support during emergencies.
