As of 06 May, UNICEF has USD 152.2 million available (40% fully flexible). Continued flexible contributions will enable UNICEF and partners to act quickly and respond strategically to where the needs are greatest.

Special recognition goes to the Governments of Austria, Denmark, Iceland, Italy, Ireland, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland and the United States of America, the European Commission, and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF).

Ongoing fundraising campaigns by UNICEF National Committees and Countries Offices have generated timely, flexible support from the private sector, including from corporate partners, foundations, philanthropy partners and individual donors, with actual funds already remitted totaling $326.6m for the entire response, and a strong pipeline of additional contributions. Private sector support the response has been unprecedented with donations received from over 500 businesses, 151 philanthropy partners, 83 foundations and a large base of individual donors across over 24 countries.
