The Challenge: Mozambique is facing a severe humanitarian crisis. This rainy season alone, over one million people have been affected by floods, storms and disease. More than 230,000 families have been displaced, homes destroyed, and communities cut off — without access to food, clean water or medical care.
Cholera and malaria are spreading rapidly, putting children at immediate risk. Children are the most vulnerable — losing access to school, safety and essential care with every new disaster.
The Solution: Your support powers UNICEF’s life-saving response for children. UNICEF teams are on the ground — delivering safe water, emergency health supplies, nutrition support and protection services to children in the hardest-hit areas.
We also help restore stability — getting children back to learning, providing safe spaces, and supporting families with the information they need to stay safe.
Relief efforts include:
- Emergency health care and mobile services for children in hard-to-reach areas.
- Safe water and sanitation support to prevent disease outbreaks.
- Nutrition screening and support for vulnerable children.
- Restoring essential services including education and child protection.
In the face of repeated disasters, your support ensures children are protected — today and in the days ahead.
Your donation delivers urgent relief when it matters most — and helps children recover safely.

Act Now! For a Child in Need
How UNICEF turns your donation into lifesaving support
💧 Flooding has contaminated water sources across multiple provinces. Your support enables UNICEF to provide clean drinking water, purification supplies, and emergency sanitation services— helping prevent deadly outbreaks of cholera and other waterborne diseases.
🏥 With 229 health facilities damaged or disrupted, children and mothers struggle to access treatment. Your donation supports mobile clinics, emergency health kits, and essential medical care for families isolated by rising waters.
🍎 Displacement, food shortages, and disease are pushing young children into acute malnutrition. Your support helps UNICEF deliver nutrition screening, essential supplies, and early treatment to protect children from life-threatening hunger.
🛡️ Overcrowded shelters heighten risks of violence, exploitation, and family separation. Your donation helps UNICEF establish child-friendly spaces, provide psychosocial support, and keep vulnerable children safe during crisis.
📘 More than 341 schools and 823 classrooms have been damaged by the floods. Your support helps UNICEF set up temporary learning spaces, deliver education kits, and ensure children continue learning even during emergency.
🎒 Your generosity helps deliver emergency tents, hygiene materials, medical kits, water purification modules, and early childhood development kits to families who have lost everything. These supplies provide safety, dignity, and stability as communities begin to recover.
UNICEF is 100% donor funded. Your contribution is immediately transformed into lifesaving support for children affected by the devastating floods in Mozambique. With homes, schools, and health centres destroyed—and a funding gap of over 99%—your support ensures UNICEF can reach displaced children with the urgent care they need to survive and recover.

More than 723,000 people have already been affected, homes and schools are underwater, and over 113 overcrowded shelters are struggling to meet basic needs. With a funding gap exceeding 99%, lifesaving services such as safe water, healthcare, nutrition support, and child protection are dangerously close to being disrupted.
