One World, Health for All
It begins with one. One hand reaching out. One heart choosing hope. One act of kindness.
Over seventy-five years ago, the World Health Organization was born from a simple but powerful promise: that health is a human right. That no matter your age, your origin, your story——your life matters.
The world has changed since then. We’ve seen progress. We’ve faced pandemics. We’ve watched borders close, economies falter, and inequalities grow deeper. Through every challenge, WHO has stood firm - saving lives, halting deadly outbreaks, and strengthening fragile health systems; reaching the most forgotten corners of the globe and currently responding to 42 emergencies.
But WHO’s work touches every life, every day—from ensuring vaccine safety to reducing tobacco use, tackling disease outbreaks, scaling up mental health services, advancing maternal health and combatting infectious and chronic diseases.
These critical efforts continue to save lives and build healthier futures—but WHO cannot do it alone.
The One World Movement embodies this spirit—uniting people across borders to power WHO’s mission for global health equity. By joining this movement, your donation becomes a lifeline—fueling faster emergency responses, delivering care where it’s needed most, and ensuring health for all, everywhere. Together we rise as one for global health. Every donation saves lives.

Our world in need
Globally, health systems are collapsing from massive aid cuts and people are paying with their lives.
In early 2025, the U.S. announced its withdrawal from WHO, stripping away nearly 20% of critical funding.
The consequences are already devastating:
This isn’t just a funding crisis, it is a human crisis.
Without immediate action, millions of lives will be lost.
You can help stop this. Stand with vulnerable families and help us protect care, dignity, and life.
What’s at Stake? Global Health
-
Immunization programs protecting children from measles, polio, and rubella face serious danger due to funding gaps. WHO has already lost 14 key immunization experts, vaccine rollout support in 25 countries, and funding for 700 critical disease surveillance labs worldwide are at irreversible risk.
67 million children should not have to miss basic vaccines for measles or polio.
-
WHO-supported maternal health services—including critical birth assistance and emergency care—are now under threat as the funding gap grows. Just last year, WHO helped deliver 1.3 million babies safely in conflict zones and fragile areas, but hundreds of clinics providing this essential care have already closed.
Without care, birth complications become fatal. Newborns die in the first hours of life.
-
Due to the ever increasing gap, life-saving HIV and TB treatments face an imminent end, putting decades of progress under threat. By June 2025, eight countries could run out of essential HIV medications, WHO’s TB team has lost most of its funding, and vital new HIV prevention tools and TB vaccines face critical delays.
Interruptions in treatment fuel drug resistance and cost lives that could have been saved.
-
Without consistent funding, global health systems’ ability to quickly detect and stop deadly outbreaks are threatened. WHO can no longer rapidly deploy teams and supplies to contain diseases like Ebola, avian flu, or cholera. Nearly half of WHO’s disease surveillance staff have already been cut, and polio eradication efforts in 10 high-risk countries could soon collapse.
Delayed responses let diseases spread unchecked—turning preventable outbreaks into deadly epidemics.
Despite facing one of the most severe funding crises in its history, WHO is working urgently to protect essential health services and prevent further loss of life. Across more than 120 countries, WHO is coordinating emergency outbreak responses, supporting national immunization campaigns, sustaining HIV and TB treatment pipelines, and keeping maternal and child health programs running in fragile settings. In response to facility closures and medicine stockouts, WHO is prioritizing high-impact interventions and working with partners to rapidly restore frontline services. This work is powered by evidence, driven by local leadership, and focused on reaching those who need help the most. But to continue to scale — we need your support.
This is what your contributions make possible.
Continuing to serve, to support, and to build together.
