Celebrating 20 years of impact

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Soccer Aid for UNICEF.
It’s a moment to reflect and celebrate on everything we have achieved together, and to recommit to protecting play for children, everywhere.

That’s why we are launching the Soccer Aid for UNICEF Alumni Fund, to bring together past and present players to join our efforts to raise more life‑saving funding than ever before.

If you can, please consider making a personal donation to the Fund. Giving in this way will allow us to track and share with you the impact of your support.

Thanks to the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation, your donation will be doubled this year, making your gift go even further. Together, the Soccer Aid for UNICEF Alumni can continue to make a real difference to the lives of children around the world.

Why this matters now

Right now, record numbers of children face challenges that no child should have to endure.
Amid conflict and crises around the world they’re losing their schools, homes and loved ones.

Just when they most need safe spaces to learn, play and just be children, they’re gone.

How the Alumni Fund helps

The Soccer Aid for UNICEF Alumni Fund supports UNICEF’s work with families, communities and trusted partners to create and protect safe spaces for children to play, so they can get the best start in life.

By donating flexible funding through the Fund, your gift will allow UNICEF to support children around the world wherever and whenever they need it.

This includes responding in times of crisis, protecting children from disease and malnutrition and enabling them to get back to learning when schools are destroyed – ensuring children everywhere can grow up happy and healthy. Please give a gift today.
