All babies and mothers should have access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. Learn more about our efforts.

UNICEF is the world’s farthest-reaching humanitarian organization for children. Across 190 countries and territories, and in the world’s toughest places, we work day in and day out to help children survive. To defend their rights. To keep them protected, healthy and educated. To give them a fair chance to fulfil their potential. Our work for every child relies entirely on voluntary support, including donations from generous Canadians.

The world is changing, and not in a good way. As a teenager growing up, I slowly saw the environment around us changing. It's not just about ice caps melting or sea levels rising; it is about the impact on our everyday lives. Climate change isn’t an abstract idea but a fact that touches everyone.
We are always looking for new fundraising events to add to our calendar and warmly welcome your support. Charity events like these play a vital role in promoting UNICEF, and in advocating and fundraising on behalf of children in need. In return, we will offer you plenty of support along the way.
July 30 is International Day of Friendship, and that means something big here at UNICEF! Sometimes challenges can seem insurmountable before friends light the way. And that’s exactly what our incredible supporters do. The act of donating to UNICEF Canada means your friendship extends a helping hand to millions of children around the world, including in 200 countries where humanitarian crises pose extreme risk.
