Answer 1

To finance its projects UNICEF depends on voluntary contribution by governments, donations by private agencies and sale of greetings cards.

Explanation:

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) does not receive any regular funding from the core United Nations budget. Instead, it relies entirely on a mix of public and private fundraising to support its welfare programs for children globally. Its primary financial backing comes from voluntary contributions made by governments, which are heavily supplemented by donations from private non-governmental agencies and individuals, alongside commercial fundraising campaigns such as the sale of its iconic greeting cards.
