Question 3

How does UNICEF raise its funds?

Answer

For financing its projects, the UNICEF depends on voluntary contributions made by different Governments, donations made by private agencies, sale of greeting cards and through various fund-raising campaigns. Sale of UNICEF cards is an important source of income. Worldwide sale of these cards generates funds of more than $100 million, all of which is spent on programmes to benefit children.
