Children's Emergency Fund

Save the Children saves thousands of children's lives every year through our emergency response and preparedness work. But we want to do more.

In order to significantly increase the number of children receiving appropriate aid and protection in emergencies, we have created the Children's Emergency Fund.

Essential facts about the Children's Emergency Fund

  • The quicker Save the Children can respond to an emergency, the more children's lives we save.
  • Having the funds in place before an emergency hits means we can deploy our team of emergency response experts immediately. We don't lose precious time waiting for public or government support.
  • The Children's Emergency Fund also helps us to respond to emergencies that are not always in the headlines.
  • We are out there every day responding to emergencies such as the flooding in India and Pakistan, typhoons in Vietnam and the Philippines, and the floods and fighting in Somalia.
  • The more companies like yours that join us, the quicker we can act, and the more children's lives will be saved.

We are appealing to the business community to help us build this fund. In return, we are offering a bespoke package of communication that allows each company and their staff to feel truly engaged in the work that their generosity is enabling.
