About us

UNICEF is the world’s leading organisation working for children and their rights in more than 190 countries. Together with our partners, UNICEF delivers health care, nutrition, education and protection to children in urgent need, while working with governments to ensure they deliver on their promise to protect and promote the rights of every child.

UNICEF relies entirely on voluntary donations to support our vital work for children. We don't receive any money from the UN budget so your support is invaluable.
