The UNICEF USA Bridge Fund is an innovative, impact investment tool that addresses the timing gaps that emerge between the commitment of a donor's support to UNICEF and the actual receipt of the pledged cash by UNICEF. A program of the U.S. Fund's In-Kind Assistance Corporation (IKAC), the Bridge Fund's low-risk, high-impact profile is attractive to a range of social impact investors seeking to make a difference in the survival and development of children. The Bridge Fund is unique, not only in its mission and mandate, but also in the scale and the impact that it can achieve by leveraging UNICEF's infrastructure, economies of scale, expertise and global reach. Since its inception in 2011, the Bridge Fund has bridged scores of transactions representing $210 million in program activity.
