Tap With A Beat brings youth and their families together to educate them about the world water crisis and foster philanthropy at all ages. This is an ALL AGES musical event raising awareness and support for UNICEF's Tap ProjectWhat Is the UNICEF Tap Project?

In 2007, the UNICEF Tap Project was born in New York City based on a simple concept: restaurants would ask their patrons to donate $1 or more for the tap water they usually enjoy for free, and all funds raised would support UNICEF’s efforts to bring clean and accessible water to millions of children around the world.Through numerous fundraising and volunteer activities, the UNICEF Tap Project celebrates the clean water we enjoy on a daily basis by encouraging celebrity, restaurant, volunteer, corporate, and government supporters to give this vital resource to children in developing countries. The concept is basic and compelling: “When You Take Water, Give Water.”2011 UNICEF Tap Project Funds will specifically target Togo, the Central African Republic and Vietnam.
