Advocating U.S. Funding for the UN

The Better World Campaign (BWC), a project of our sister organization, the Better World Fund, is a leading voice for a strong, fully funded UN system. We work with thousands of individuals all over the United States—and around the world—to raise the profile of the UN and the challenges it faces. We believe that no one nation should pay all the bills or take all the risks for international peace and security. To that end, we work with the United States and other governments to fully fund the lifesaving and life-changing work of the United Nations.
