In July alone, 13,000 kids were treated for malnutrition, and 7,200 more in just the first half of August. It's heartbreaking to see famine and food shortages threaten young lives. UNICEF is working on the ground to respond, but they need global attention and support.
We're supporting our Icelandic partner group Hvalavinir to launch #ForTheLoveOfIceland: a campaign to inspire tourists to choose compassion, skip whale meat and help protect Iceland’s wildlife.

Meet John Wick 🐱—once severely injured, now thriving in a loving home ���
Stories like this remind us why rescue, treatment, and adoption matter.
Thank you @humaneworlduk for saving lives like his.
John Wick was brought to our mobile clinic in Romania when he was found outside with a rupture in his abdomen, and his organs were protruding.
Surgery was performed immediately, and now he’s in perfect health! Since recovering, he’s been adopted into a loving home🩵
An overnight attack on a boarding school in Rakhine State, Myanmar killed and injured children as they slept. This is heartbreaking and unacceptable. Every child deserves safety, peace, and a future. Let's stand together and say: Violence against children must stop.

Every child deserves safety, food, and peace. From Gaza to Myanmar, the suffering is real—and preventable. Support UNICEF efforts to deliver emergency aid where it's needed most.
13,000 children in Gaza were admitted for malnutrition treatment in July.
In the first two weeks of August, that number was 7,200.
UNICEF’s Tess Ingram reports on the impact of famine and insufficient aid on children in Gaza, and how UNICEF is responding.
Absolutely heartbreaking. No child should lose their life while sleeping. We must continue to speak out and demand accountability. Violence against children is a violation of humanity itself.
450,000 children in Gaza City are already traumatized and exhausted by nearly two years of unrelenting war. Now, the escalating military offensive means more devastating consequences for them.
From Gaza, @UNICEFmena's Tess Ingram shares the horrific realities for children and families on the ground.
Children should never be collateral damage. Over 450,000 kids in Gaza are enduring unimaginable trauma, and further military escalation only deepens their suffering. We must call for urgent humanitarian protection.

Our friends at @weact4ej released a StoryMap that shows why gutting #NEPA is wrong. True #CleanEnergy progress needs community voice, funding & coordination—not polluter-friendly “reform.” Read more: https://t.co/nYM2IBukcq
So many lives are lost due to water-related disasters, yet we still underinvest in prevention. Early warning systems and smarter water management could save billions. UNESCO’s work is a reminder that water science = human survival.
The New York Times Editorial Board is speaking out on the epic failings of the Make America Healthy Again movement, citing @SierraClub work on how much worse our air and water are becoming in red states like Texas @nytopinion https://t.co/mc9eEPz29j
Water-related disasters are a silent threat that continues to claim lives globally. It's urgent that we invest in science-based solutions like UNESCO's Intergovernmental Hydrological Programme. Prevention through better management and early warnings saves lives.

This is heartbreaking. Children should never be targets in any conflict. UNICEF’s continued advocacy for their protection is essential—thank you for raising awareness. We must all speak out against violence and support humanitarian action for every child.
UNICEF is extremely concerned by reports of an overnight attack on a boarding school in Kyauktaw Township, Rakhine State, Myanmar, that reportedly killed and injured children as they slept.
Violence against children must stop.

It’s heartbreaking that so many dogs are still being rescued from cruelty, but it’s uplifting to know they’re finally safe. Healing will take time, but with care and love, they have a real chance at a new life. Every donation helps turn rescue into recovery and hope.
Just two weeks after rescuing 22 dogs from suspected dogfighting, we’ve saved more victims—this time in South Carolina. 🐾
They’re safe now, but healing takes time—and resources.
Your gift can bring comfort, care and hope for animals in need. 💔 Help them begin again: https://t.co/GZTJdv2Upg
