Become a Global Parent today. You'll be amazed at what you can achieve.

Yes, I want to become a Global Parent, with a monthly pledge that will help children all over the world.
I would prefer to pay by:

One tiny thing you do today will change thousands of young lives tomorrow!

The UNICEF Global Parent programme helps all children everywhere regardless of race, religion or political affiliation.

Monthly donations provide essentials such as clean water and basic sanitation infrastructure, education, health care, irrigation and horticultural development to help communities become self-sufficient.

UNICEF builds schools and fosters education as a way of helping young children achieve their potential to lead their communities into a more prosperous, sustainable future.

As a Global Parent, you won't just fix problems.

You'll help put in place programmes that stop the cycle of sickness and poverty from continuing. Our policy is working with communities and empowering them to manage for themselves.

Mike McRoberts, family man with global children.

"I say to people who want to make a contribution - which in the scheme of things is fairly insignificant to people like us but is hugely significant in the lives of others - that becoming a UNICEF Global Parent is the way to go.

I became a UNICEF Global Parent after seeing first hand the work UNICEF do around the world.

You can be assured the money you give will be spent wisely and to the best effect."

Global Parents change children's lives every day through an ongoing monthly donation to UNICEF.

As a Global Parent you don't just support a single child in a single community - you support many children who desperately need your help. A donation every month provides children with ongoing medicine, vaccines, food and shelter.

And you invest in the world's children by improving acces to safe water and sanitation, and ensuring that children are educated and protected from harm and exploitation as they grow up.
