Right now, Afghanistan is one of only two countries in the world where polio remains endemic. This highly-infectious, yet entirely vaccine-preventable disease mainly threatens children under the age of 5 – and we’re racing against the clock to eradicate it for good.
Friend, when you donate today, your gift will be MATCHED to help us reach and protect twice as many children in Afghanistan and other crisis zones around the world. Double your gift >> |
UNICEF is the only humanitarian organization that has had a continuous presence in Afghanistan for decades.
War, violence, instability, the pandemic — we stay through all of it because the needs of children remain critical. And they aren’t just at risk of polio, they’re up against acute malnutrition, extreme poverty and the devastating impacts of COVID-19.
Friend, we won’t stop our work or leave crisis zones until every child is safe. But with so many crises worldwide, our resources are limited and that’s why your MATCHED donation today is so vital.
Your DOUBLED gift could help a 1-year-old, weak from months of malnutrition, receive lifesaving health services to help build back their strength. It could help a young girl safely attend school. It could help siblings receive a lifesaving vaccine that gives them a chance for a healthy future.
Children are counting on us, Friend. Double your impact today to help us reach them.
Thank you for your generosity,
Alax Gealy
