In an emergency, your company's support could help save the lives of some of the world’s most vulnerable children.

For more than 60 years, UNICEF has been a leader in providing life saving assistance and protection for children caught in emergencies around the world.

In 2010, UNICEF responded to at least 290 humanitarian situations in 98 countries, affecting millions of children.

We not only respond to those emergencies that gain the attention of the world’s press, we also respond to silent emergencies.

UNICEF receives no funding from the United Nations budget and is funded entirely by voluntary contributions. In emergencies, the need for funds is more urgent then ever.
