Taking place every year on November 20th, the anniversary of the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, World Children’s Day is the occasion for UNICEF to highlight critical issues affecting children’s lives.
UNICEF has been at the frontlines of humanitarian crises, armed conflict and natural disasters. Undeterred by the scale of the crises, we rise to the challenge, reimagine what is possible and respond by helping millions of children survive and thrive. Our on-the-ground expertise has reached more than 191 countries and territories, through committed partnerships and a passion for innovation.
This World Children’s Day you can support UNICEF’s mission and goal to ensure every child has the opportunity to survive and thrive. Every dollar adds up to big impact:
• $1 can provide 40 days of safe water for one child
• $4 can provide a student with a UNICEF backpack
• $5 can provide lifesaving therapeutic food for 13 malnourished children
• $12 can provide a refugee family with 1 tarpaulin to provide shelter from wind, rain and snow
• $34 can provide 1 emergency UNICEF Family Kit (critical for delivering medical care, safe water and hygiene, protection and education)
UNICEF won't stop until the rights of every child are protected, until every child has a safe and healthy childhood, until every child has the future they deserve.
