Donate to UNICEF,
this Christmas
We stand for every child, everywhere
UNICEF’s Every Child Fund, helping children where they need it most
This festive season, join us in supporting UNICEF’s Every Child Fund, a vital fund for children everywhere. Your gift helps deliver urgent essentials like safe water, vaccines, and education in emergencies, while also investing in long-term solutions that give every child the chance to grow up healthy, safe, and full of possibility.
Your support during this season of generosity will help children everywhere to keep learning, keep playing, and keep growing up with confidence and hope.
How does the Fund work?
The Every Child Fund is designed to deliver impact where it matters most. It isn’t tied to one country or one crisis, your support goes where children need it most. This flexibility means UNICEF can respond immediately when emergencies strike and invest in long-term solutions that strengthen health systems, schools, and child protection services. It’s about planning with certainty, acting with speed, and delivering impact that lasts.
Your donation could help:
- Provide childhood vaccines to keep children healthy and safe from preventable diseases.
- Set up a temporary learning space where children can learn and find sanctuary in emergencies.
- Provide families with emergency water and essential hygiene kits.
- Provide a child experiencing malnutrition with the vital nutrients they need to recover.

Why donate to UNICEF?
We have done more to influence laws, policies and practices to help protect children than any other charity. As an organisation we:
- Help more than half the world’s children to access life saving vaccines.
- Work with governments, communities and parents to enable access to a quality education for every child.
- Provide life-saving therapeutic food and vital nutrition supplements for millions of children each year.
We receive no funding from the UN central budget, so we rely entirely on voluntary donations like yours to fund our vital work to protect children in danger and build a safer world for tomorrow’s children.
Your charity donation will go to support our work around the world.
