UNICEF relies entirely on voluntary contributions to support our work for children. Philanthropy is a vital and catalytic part of that support.
Backed by philanthropists worldwide and across Ireland, UNICEF teams are on the ground in over 190 countries and territories protecting the lives and rights of vulnerable children.
We work with global partners, national governments, and local communities to address the needs of children in the most effective and sustainable way. And in humanitarian emergencies, UNICEF knows that children’s needs don’t end when the news cycle moves on, which is why our expert teams are present before, during, and after a crisis.
A philanthropic partnership with UNICEF can spark innovative solutions for the world’s toughest challenges. From eradicating polio, to achieving gender equality, and tackling the climate crisis – philanthropic leaders are crucial for accelerating the way forward.

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.

Your dedicated relationship manager will get to know your values and vision for your philanthropy. We can then build a strategy for support around the UNICEF programmes that will achieve the most meaningful impact for you.
We keep you up-to-date with how your donation has impacted children through timely, tailored reporting. We will also keep you informed on other priority areas so that you can get a holistic view of the work of UNICEF.
You will be invited to UNICEF Ireland events, virtual experiences, private briefings with programme specialists, and be provided opportunities to see UNICEF’s operations in action (subject to giving levels).
UNICEF is the world’s leading organisation for children. Over 78 years, UNICEF has saved the lives of more children than any other organisation.
We ensure that more of the world’s children are healthy, educated, protected and respected than anyone else. We’ve also done more to influence laws and policies to help protect children globally. We get things done. And we’re not going to stop until the world is a safe place for every child.
Whether you or your family are considering a significant one-time gift, exploring options for targeted or flexible support, or would like to invest in a bespoke philanthropic partnership, our dedicated Philanthropy team will work with you to realise your wishes and make a meaningful difference for the world’s children.
At UNICEF Ireland, we support donors to manage their personal philanthropic giving through whatever channel works best for them, be it through a donor-advised fund, trust, family foundation, private business, or other financial entity.
