Philanthropy and major gifts

At UNICEF, we believe that every child, everywhere, has the right to be healthy, educated, and safe. Our philanthropic partners share that belief.

Together For Children

Philanthropic support allows UNICEF to provide long-term and sustainable change for the world’s children.

Because we partner with governments, local communities, and the private sector, we are able to target inequality at its root and successfully scale up programmes and innovations for global impact.

As a philanthropic partner, you can engage on a deeper level with UNICEF’s work for children.

The importance of philanthropy

UNICEF's philanthropic partners play a vital role in advancing its mission.

Considering a Major Gift?

Whether you or your family are considering a one-time gift, structured support, or a bespoke philanthropic partnership, our Philanthropy team will help realise your wishes to make a life-changing difference for children.

A partnership with UNICEF can spark innovative solutions to the world’s toughest challenges — from eradicating polio to achieving gender equality and tackling the climate crisis. Philanthropic leaders are crucial to accelerating progress.

UNICEF Ireland is an approved body for tax-effective giving under the Charitable Donation Scheme.
