It is funded entirely by voluntary contributions from individuals, businesses, foundations and governments.

"We are committed to finding always new ways to save children’s lives, as in the case of the inaugural Unicef Summer Gala: a new opportunity to involve more and more people at our side and find valuable allies to help children."
