EasyJet launches emergency collection to support UNICEF’s Türkiye and Syria earthquake appeal
- The emergency onboard collection will raise vital funds for children and their families affected by the earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria.
- Donations will go directly towards easyJet and UNICEF’s emergency appeal supporting children and their families in the region who need it the most.
- UNICEF is particularly concerned for the safety and well-being of children who have lost their homes, are separated from their families, with no access to food or water supplies, and left out in the freezing cold.
- The child rights organization is currently working in the region to protect the safety, health and welfare of children.
From Saturday 11th February, easyJet is launching an emergency onboard collection to raise vital funds for UNICEF’s Türkiye and Syria emergency earthquake appeal.
The in-flight collections will take place across easyJet’s entire network from Saturday over the next two weeks, offering more than 2.7 million passengers across 36 countries the opportunity to donate.

The funds raised from the collections will go directly towards supporting UNICEFs round-the-clock emergency response in the region, to help provide urgent support to the children who have lost their homes, sleeping rough and those who have been separated from their families.
easyJet has partnered with UNICEF for more than a decade and is currently supporting the charity’s latest emergency appeal following a successful Ukraine appeal last year, which raised more than £800,000 for children and their families impacted by the war in Ukraine.
Over the last 10 years easyJet’s customers have raised more than £16m through onboard donations, helping to protect millions of children around the world from disease and keep them safe during emergencies.
