friend, access to reproductive health services and education saves lives.
For the past five decades, we have been the lead United Nations agency for sexual and reproductive health and rights. We work around the world to end the unmet need for family planning, end preventable maternal death, and end violence against women and girls, including harmful practices like child marriage and female genital mutilation.
But we can only continue our work to promote the health, dignity, and rights of women and girls with the help of supporters like you.
Right now, we’re MATCHING every donation we receive from new supporters up to $10,000 – we hope you’ll take advantage of this opportunity to double your impact.
Over the last few years, UNFPA has made significant improvements for women’s health in the 155 countries we operate in. We’ve protected 1,840,000 girls from child marriage, prevented 30 million unintended pregnancies, distributed 1.1 billion condoms – and yet our work is nowhere near complete.
The stakes couldn’t be higher for our work. In a single day, nearly 800 women will die from preventable pregnancy and childbirth complications, 20,000 adolescent girls will give birth, another 20,000 will become child brides, and 137 women will die at the hands of family members or intimate partners.
Thank you for your help, and welcome to this team. Together, we can reach our goal to protect the health and dignity of every woman and girl everywhere.
Your gift will deliver lifesaving sexual and reproductive health care to women and girls in more than 150 countries around the world. Thank you for being there for every woman and girl.
