Friends of UNFPA

Friends of UNFPA is a non-profit organization, headquartered in New York, that supports the work of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the sexual and reproductive health and rights agency of the United Nations.[1] Friends of UNFPA advances UNFPA's work by mobilizing funds and action for the organization.

The organization was founded in 1998 to raise political and financial support within the United States for UNFPA. Initially known as Americans for UNFPA, the non-profit changed to its current name in 2012 to reflect its global scope.[2]
