It starts with an urgent need.
A badly malnourished child teeters on the brink of starvation. Without essential nutrients… the child could die… or suffer irreversible harm.

A transformative product, therapeutic food, can save this child’s life… by delivering an outsized dose of calories and nutrition in a small, ready-to-use package.

Donors from all over the world… can be mobilized to help get therapeutic food to children like this.

But the process takes time…

… and this child cannot wait.
What if there was a way… to speed relief to this child? What if… there was a way to ensure goods reach children in need more rapidly?

Now, there is: It’s called the UNICEF Bridge Fund.

Every day, 21,000 children die from preventable causes. They die even though the medicines and vaccines and therapeutic food that could save them exist. This is a story about an innovative social investment… that is making it possible to expedite the delivery of essential commodities to children whose very lives depend on them.

This is one concrete way we can work toward a day… when the number of children dying from preventable causes… is not 21,000—it is zero.
