    FAQs

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a different way to raise money for good ideas. Put simply, it’s about using the power of people to come together and raise money for brilliant initiatives. It's been around for centuries but the internet makes it possible to reach much bigger audiences than before.

    Why UNICEF?

    UNICEF is the only global organisation ready to deliver an operation of this size, being experts in large-scale vaccination initiatives. As part of the COVAX Facility, with your help they’re using their extensive knowledge and infrastructure to deliver COVID-19 vaccines around the world. COVAX is a ground-breaking collaboration between 190 countries - Its aim is simple: ensure every country in the world has fair and equal access to the COVID-19 vaccines. It’s co-led by Gavi (The Vaccine Alliance) and the WHO, among others.

    Where does the money go?

    Vaccines are being prioritised for frontline health and social workers, teachers, and those at highest risk from the virus. Your donation will help struggling health services get back on their feet, as well as help millions of children go back to school, while protecting the most at-risk people.

    Who are VaccinAid?

    VaccinAid are a collective of organisations brought together to fight COVID-19 around the World. The initiative is led by UNICEF and Crowdfunder, and is backed by charities, governments, the private sector and the public, like you, all working to end the pandemic.
