UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund, is a global champion for children's rights making a lasting difference by working with communities and influencing goverments.

UNICEF UK also advocates for lasting change for children. For example UNICEF UK’s Public Affairs Team works to change government policies and practices that are detrimental to children’s rights in the UK and internationally.

UNICEF is not funded by the UN. Instead, we rely on voluntary donations to fund our work for children worldwide. UNICEF UK raises funds for these programmes through donations, the sale of cards and gifts, partnerships with companies and special events.
