The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge join UNICEF and UPS to fight the East Africa …

Starting with a visit to UNICEF’s Global Supply Center by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, UPS chronicles a shipment of life-saving emergency kits to children in East Africa. UPS, a long-standing partner of UNICEF, is provided a charter flight to deliver these much needed supplies from Copenhagen to East Africa.
