We launched a new partnership with the British Karate Federation in 2010 to raise vital funds for our work to uphold every child’s right to an education. The British Karate Federation’s support means we can help ensure that all children get the education they deserve so that they are able to thrive. All karate clubs in the UK are encouraged to undertake a fundraising challenge, and promote our work at championships.
The United Nations Association (UNA) is a leading independent authority on the UN, and a UK-wide grassroots membership organisation. UNA has been raising funds for UNICEF and the UNA Trust through Flag Day collections for a number of years.

An Edukit or School-in-a-Box provides children with a desperately needed lifeline during emergencies. They contain supplies to create an instant classroom for at least 40 children and their teacher, no matter where they are. Plus the wind-up solar radio enables displaced children to keep in touch with the world outside the camp and is also an invaluable teaching aid.
One Edukit costs just £170. If your Lions Club would like to donate to the Edukit Appeal, please send a cheque made payable to Lions Club International, District (your district) to your District Treasurer, stating that it's for the UNICEF Edukit.
