There are many reasons. Here are a few: 

  • Results: UNICEF ensures children around the globe are healthy, educated, protected and respected through innovative partnerships and programs

  • UNICEF operates in over 190 countries and territories with 13,000 staff members working alongside local and national governments and convening other key partners to improve children's lives and protect their rights

  • UNICEF responds to an average of 300 emergencies a year, drawing from over 75 years of experience — delivering lifesaving aid and supporting long-term recovery through capacity building and empowering communities and countries to build back better

  • UNICEF has the largest humanitarian supply warehouse in the world that can ship to anywhere within 72 hours, and its buying power has lowered the cost of immunization and other necessities for better child health
