better stop suplying ISIS with oil and weapons
would do so much more than mining on GPUs to help syrian children
syrian children and the country itself were perfectly fine untill invaded
twofaced to the max,one hand insists Asad must go and that we know better what syrian people need
and the other is collecting money to help children

I do support the cause but highly doubtful on the credibility of the news.

I often see TV reports about the activities of the various funds, but have never met people who I would have confirmed the effectiveness of these funds. Anyone else see the effect of the existence of the UN? Would be better if the money used for economic development of underdeveloped countries.
The thing with these marketing based charities is that they only show you what they want you to see. In that regard, they will allocate at least a small percentage of the funds to help out where needed, just to have it filmed in a very professional way to show the outside world what they do. If we look at these charities on a global level, and how they have been 'helping' out those who need help in the last few decades, then it's safe to say that people's donations haven't had a mentioning worthy effect. The system we're living in is the direct result of the fact that undeveloped countries will never be able to move forward, regardless of how many billions there have been pumped into charity funds and whatnot.

I don't agree with you. Not all of the funds are the same. UNICEF cannot stop the war but it tries to help those affected.
The idea itself is touching, but the thing with all these charities doing their work (at least, we hope they do) on distance is that we can't see where our money is being put to work. I seriously don't have problems with donating money from time to time, but not if I can't see what the charity in question is doing with my money. The thing is that there have been so many negative examples in the past, where the top members of a larger charity have been paying themselves more than $100,000 in salary, plus a luxury car because they think it suits them well when doing their job.
Another thing to put into perspective is that a large percentage of our donations is being pumped into more marketing. It's more like a business structure than an actual charity it seems. Not very convincing for potential donators. February 02, 2018, 10:22:20 AM

Unfortunately there is no such news on any reputable news portal. Although I find the idea very interesting I would recommend to restrain from downloading any applications before the news will be confirmed by the UNICEF and even after that, if that happens at all, I think it's better to check twice from what site you are going to download the app. In case the news is true they will probably provide a legit download link on their official site https://www.unicef.org/ .

I don't participate in such programs. I don't trust the stewards of all the funds. I don't understand their purpose. In order to avoid poor children need to stop the war. Then the parents have to work and provide for their children. Such funds only encourage war. When parents don't feed their children they have the opportunity to participate in the war.

I'm not sure that this news is really credible. We should see if UNICEF made an official statement about this project
