Business Contributions to UN Emergency Relief Efforts: An Orientation Guide

Summary

This guide explains the role of various UN agencies during an emergency, and identifies ways in which companies can support relief efforts in a timely and appropriate manner, be it through cash contributions, in-kind donations, or volunteer expertise.

The Orientation Guide is divided into the four sections listed below and is intended to provide information that will help businesses make a contribution with the greatest positive impact on communities affected by a humanitarian crisis. This guide is particularly useful for companies considering donations of products or services rather than financial contributions.
