Every year, UNICEF improves the lives of millions of children. For more than 75 years, UNICEF has shown up for children in over 190 countries and territories with life-changing emergency support, vaccinations, medical treatments and more.
To uphold its mission to reach children everywhere, UNICEF relies on voluntary contributions from people like you, global partners, the private sector and governments — including the U.S. government. Every year, Congress must pass appropriations to fund governmental programs, priorities, and agencies, and has traditionally included support for UNICEF’s core resources.
This valuable support helps UNICEF respond with flexibility to meet the growing needs of children around the world. Add your name to urge Congress to continue funding UNICEF’s powerful work for children >> |
This federal support is needed now more than ever as children globally face increased risk of malnutrition, more consequences of climate change, further disruptions to education, greater mental health challenges and backsliding in immunizations.
With your support, we can ensure that UNICEF maintains funding to help:
-
More than 400 million children who live in areas under conflict
-
Nearly half the world’s children who live in countries at extreme vulnerability to the impacts of climate change
-
Over 43 million children who have been displaced from their homes
There's no time to wait. Speak out now to ensure that our leaders in Congress scale up funding for UNICEF as global crises worsen and children's needs mount >> |
Thanks for taking action,
UNICEF USA
P.S. Congress recently voted to support $9.2 billion in emergency funding for global humanitarian aid. This historic level of funding wouldn’t have been possible without your advocacy and support. Keep the momentum going by pushing for annual appropriations today >> |
