A devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake near Nepal's capital city of Kathmandu, has claimed nearly 5,000 lives, caused thousands of injuries, and destroyed homes and infrastructure. Around 1.7 million children require humanitarian assistance, and UNICEF is on the ground working to provide critical aid to children and families.
When it comes to emergency and disaster relief, UNICEF is there for children—before, during and after a crisis.
Make a secure, tax-deductible donation to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, supporting UNICEF's relief efforts in the wake of the Nepal earthquake: $50, $100, $250, $500 or any amount you can give will help save kids' lives.
If you prefer to send your donation to UNICEF's emergency relief fund by mail, or call 1-800-FOR-KIDS (1-800-367-5437) to donate by phone.
