Ready for use at any time: UNICEF Switzerland and Liechtenstein’s Emergency Relief Fund. By donating to the Emergency Relief Fund, you can ensure the timely provision of relief supplies and help save children’s lives in crisis situations and disasters around the world. 

The situation

Providing fast and effective assistance where it is needed is the core of UNICEF’s emergency relief, for more than 75 years and in over 190 countries. The Children’s Fund has a broad range of experience coupled with in-depth knowledge, and is constantly improving its methodology.

Disasters and crises usually occur unexpectedly and cause immeasurable suffering for tens of thousands, sometimes even millions of children. Providing emergency relief requires the organization to be very well prepared to respond quickly and effectively to various forms of disasters: the immediate deployment of urgently needed relief supplies is a key prerequisite.

To ensure this, UNICEF needs funds. By donating to the UNICEF Switzerland and Liechtenstein Emergency Relief Fund, you can ensure the timely provision of relief supplies before and during emergencies and help save children’s lives in crisis situations and disasters around the world. 

Three good reasons to make a regular donation to the Emergency Relief Fund:

1. SAVING CHILDREN’S LIVES
Thanks to your regular donations, we can respond immediately to disasters, crises and conflicts and save children’s lives.

2. PLANNING FOR THE LONG TERM
Your regular donation allows us to plan for the long term and help children more effectively and continuously.

3. STRAIGHTFORWARD HELP
You can make an effective contribution to children in need without much effort: set up a donation once and help again and again.

Wherever crises threaten the lives of children, UNICEF is one of the first organizations on the ground, delivering essential relief supplies and offering children comprehensive assistance and protection. The Children’s Fund also advocates for children in “forgotten conflicts” and emergencies that are not, or no longer, in the public eye. The UNICEF Switzerland and Liechtenstein Emergency Relief Fund ensures that relief supplies are purchased before a disaster hits and can be put to use right away.

Our commitment focuses on the following cornerstones:

Health and nutrition:

People like you have enabled us to efficiently help children in crises and disasters. With a donation to the UNICEF Switzerland and Liechtenstein Emergency Relief Fund, you can ensure the timely provision of relief supplies even before an emergency occurs. In this way, UNICEF can quickly provide the help needed and save children’s lives in crises and disasters around the world.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support.
