UNICEF partners offer unique easy ways to help save children's lives

Several corporate partners of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF have created special product offerings or other creative options to help UNICEF in its mission to reduce the number of preventable childhood deaths from 24,000 per day to zero. For each purchase of these items—which range from bracelets to solar lamps to luxury gifts and accessories—these partners will make a donation to support UNICEF's lifesaving programs.

IKEA Soft Toy and Sunnan Lamp initiatives brighten children's futures

For every SUNNAN solar powered lamp sold in IKEA stores worldwide, one lamp will be given to UNICEF to light up the life of a child. The first shipments were directed to Pakistan, helping children in camps for people who had to flee their homes, and in remote villages.

IKEA has made an especially sturdy SUNNAN for the developing world, designed to resist the wear and tear of difficult living situations, including a battery capable of withstanding high temperatures. This unit will enable children to play, read, write and study at night, even if their homes have no electricity. SUNNAN comes in five bright colors and is available in an IKEA store near you at a cost of $19.99.
