There’s joy in wrapping gifts, hearing carols, and sitting around a table with the people who matter most. This year, that same feeling of warmth can reach children who have had very little to celebrate.

Children fighting severe malnutrition. Children without access to vaccines or healthcare to protect them. Children growing up without education to guide their future.

Your regular gift can help change that. It can deliver the care, safety, and opportunities every child deserves and the priceless gift of a future filled with possibilities.

Your regular gift can help transform children's lives

Why your regular monthly gift matters?

  • Because children need you: When disasters strike or crises unfold, children are the first to suffer. Your monthly support ensures they don’t face these challenges alone.
  • Because every step forward matters: From therapeutic food to a life-saving vaccine, your donations help children take one more step toward health, survival, and a chance to rebuild their future.
  • Because hope doesn’t come in moments, it comes in commitments: Staying means being there not just today but for every tomorrow that follows.

How Your Gift Transforms Lives This Holiday Season and Beyond?

Crises come in many forms – wars, floods, hunger, drought, earthquakes – but they all have one thing in common: a devastating impact on children’s lives.

Your generosity during this festive season is more than a gift; it’s a lifeline. With your regular support, we can respond immediately at the onset of a crisis, anywhere and everywhere. It will help provide urgent relief like medical aid, safe water, and life-saving food but also allow us to plan and deliver ongoing support to help rebuild shattered lives.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

UNICEF is the United Nations Children’s Fund, working to protect the rights of every child, everywhere. We work to help the most vulnerable with health care and immunizations, safe water and sanitation, nutrition, education, emergency relief and more.  

Thanks to support from donors like you, we have been able to make a difference for children in need, saving, nurturing, and protecting the most vulnerable. We are active in over 190 countries and territories, working closely with the government, local partners and charities, and have helped save more children's lives than any other humanitarian organization. 

UNICEF works to advance and protect child rights and to provide health care, immunizations, nutrition, access to safe water and sanitation services, education, protection and emergency relief. Today, UNICEF works in more than 190 countries and territories (that's all the countries in the world except for 5!) to save and improve children's lives. 

Thanks to donors like you, we can be on the ground providing critical services and delivering supplies to the most vulnerable children. We work alongside governments, other non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and many other partners to help ensure the biggest impact for children in need and to reach children in the most remote places. And our work is only possible thanks to your generosity and commitment to saving children's lives.

UNICEF does not get any direct funding from the UN budget, which means 100% of our money comes from donations.

Everything we do is funded by people like you, who make voluntary contributions to ensure that UNICEF can continue its efforts to save, nurture, and protect children everywhere.  For detailed information on our work and funding, you can see our latest Annual Report.

You work hard to support children in need, and UNICEF wants to ensure we get the best out of every contribution. That's why we have created an option for monthly donations.

A monthly gift is a recurring gift amount that you choose to send each month, and it is even more impactful because you're helping children every single day.

Your monthly gift will also enable us to plan effectively for our upcoming work, reduce costs, and, most importantly, reach even more children in need. We couldn't continue our efforts without the support and generosity of monthly donors, and we hope you'll consider joining the UNICEF family.

UNICEF accepts online donations by credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on all of our donation pages. Thanks to donors like you, we can make a difference for children's lives.

If you are unable to use your credit card for an online donation, you can visit your local UNICEF country page for more details. Some countries accept donations made via cheque or phone.

Unfortunately we do not accept cryptocurrency or NFT donations at this time.
