Story
UNICEF has been both a Charity and Team Partner for the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race since the 2015-16 edition and during this time has raised £1.6 million for children around the world.
UNICEF has 15,000 people working for children in more than 190 countries, responding to emergencies and building long-term resilience. They save children's lives with vaccines, clean water and therapeutic food. They protect children from violence, exploitation and abuse. They empower children through quality education. And they seek to create a safe and sustainable world where children can live, learn and grow.
This year marks a decade of partnership between The Clipper Race and UNICEF and The Clipper Race is aiming to raise £420,000 towards UNICEF's work.
Every pound you donate will make a difference to every child, every day, everywhere.
£5 could provide bed nets to 3 families to protect them from malaria.
£10 could provide life-saving TB vaccines for 40 children.
£15 could provide almost 5,000 water purification tablets during an emergency – helping to purify almost 5,000 litres of water.
£20 could provide a vaccine carrier to keep vaccines cold during transportation.
£50 could provide a full course of treatment for a child with severe acute malnutrition.

£275 could buy a midwifery kit containing all of the medicines, medical supplies and sterilisation equipment for a maternity ward to support the delivery of 50 babies.
