Partner with UNICEF
Become a Partner for Every Child in Ghana.
This is where partnership creates real change.
In Ghana, meaningful progress has been made for children, but many are still being left behind. Today, over 13 million children live across the country, and nearly 9.4 million experience multidimensional poverty. Many still lack access to safe water, quality education, proper health and nutrition, and protection from violence. From Northern Ghana, where poverty reaches 44%, to underserved urban communities, children face challenges that no child should have to endure. UNICEF is committed to ensuring lasting change, but we cannot do it alone. Ghana’s private sector has a critical role to play in shaping a future where every child can live safely, learn with confidence, and have their true potential unlocked and realized.
Why Your Support Matters
With the right support, we can change not just outcomes, but the dreams and aspirations of millions of children across Ghana. Every child deserves access to safe water and sanitation, a safe toilet, healthcare, protection and the chance to learn, but for the 13 million children in Ghana, these basic rights are still out of reach. Unsafe sanitation continues to expose children to life‑threatening diseases, while nearly half of primary school children struggle to read or do simple math.
UNICEF is making progress—improving WASH services, strengthening health systems, scaling innovative education approaches, and supporting child protection. Together with government, civil society, and development partners, we help turn policy into impact, advancing a shared vision where every child is healthy, educated, protected, and empowered to thrive.
But challenges remain, and too many children are left behind. That is why your support matters. By choosing UNICEF, you are not only helping children today: you are shaping the future of childhood in Ghana.
How the Private Sector Can Make a Difference
Private sector partners in Ghana have a powerful role to play in accelerating impact for children: Whether you are an individual who wants to give, a philanthropist committed to driving change, or a business ready to invest in impact, there is a place for you in UNICEF Ghana's partnerships community.
