Help us to stay and deliver for every child

Philanthropic support helps us stay and deliver.

The world is merciless for too many children caught in wars, displaced, hungry, hurt or neglected. With conflicts at their highest since WWII, 1 in 5 children live in conflict zones and 1 in 4 under five face hunger.

Just when they need us most, protective institutions are stepping back. Every funding cut puts another child at risk.

UNICEF is committed to stay and deliver.

Support a Campaign

UNICEF’s partners and major donors play a vital role in advancing its mission by providing essential funding, innovative solutions, and global reach.

Support global results for children

UNICEF is mandated by the United Nations to protect the rights of children globally.

Over eight decades, UNICEF has built a global support system for children. With partners in 190+ countries, we deliver essentials: health care, nutrition, safe water, education, and emergency relief.

Together we have reduced child mortality and eradicated diseases, but funding cuts now put this progress at risk.

Philanthropic support is crucial.

Key results for children

For over eight decades, UNICEF has helped more children than any other organisation. Together with partners, we have led the way on delivering sustainable long-term results that transform children's lives.

Nearly 8 million more children in the world this year will reach their fifth birthday compared to 1990 – a 60% decline in child mortality.

UNICEF and partners have contributed to this remarkable achievement by improving maternal and child healthcare services and strengthening disease prevention in countries across the world. Today, a quarter of all births happen in UNICEF-supported health centres.

 

As the world’s largest vaccine supplier, UNICEF procures and distributes enough vaccines to immunise 45% of the world’s children.

In 2023, UNICEF supplied 2.8 billion vaccine doses to 105 countries, safely reducing the scourge of preventable diseases that keep children from walking, playing and learning. Through widespread immunisations, polio is on the brink of eradication.

With support from UNICEF and partners, more than a quarter of the world’s population gained access to safe and clean drinking water in the past two decades.

UNICEF leads coordinated emergency response efforts that keep children connected to safe water in roughly 85% of countries affected by crisis.

For more than two decades, UNICEF has procured up to 80% of the world’s ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) to treat children suffering from severe malnutrition.

In 2023 alone, UNICEF and partners reached over 210 million children with nutrition services, including 9.3 million who required life-saving treatment.
