Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, UNICEF has been working with partners around the clock to get masks, gloves and other personal protective equipment (PPE) to frontline health workers.
This new Fast Fund, an innovative guaranty facility, offers UNICEF supporters an opportunity to contribute to UNICEF’s response to COVID-19 and achieve impact far in excess of their original investment. Every dollar that goes into the fund stands to generate up to 18 times as much in support for those in need.
One big issue currently affecting PPE supplies is that suppliers need to be paid in advance before they can start producing the goods. And in today's hyper-competitive market, they are asking for upfront payment without providing the usual guarantees from banks that UNICEF requires. Critical supplies arrive in El Salvador. UNICEF is working with partners in over 90 countries to support emergency response measures against COVID-19.UNICEF supporters — individuals and organizations — can contribute to the Fast Fund in one of two ways. The first is to make a charitable donation directly in support of the fund, money to be used for future emergencies if and when the fund is no longer needed to fight COVID-19.
