Every child deserves a shot at a happy, healthy future. Immunizations play a large role in ensuring this.
However, an estimated 25 million children did not receive basic vaccines in 2021, which is the highest
number since 2009.
Shot@Life is a grassroots advocacy campaign of the United Nations Foundation that champions global
childhood immunization. The campaign rallies members of the public, Congress, businesses, and civil
society partners — through public education, grassroots advocacy, and fundraising — to support and
invest in global immunization programs of our UN partners, such as UNICEF, World Health Organization,
and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. Shot@Life’s over 350,000 supporters and 3,000 core grassroots
advocates in all 50 states strive to decrease vaccine-preventable childhood deaths and give every child a
shot at life no matter where they live.
