    Paddington Bear™ needs a travel buddy

    Pack your bear necessities, your adventurous spirit, and don’t forget the marmalade sammies!  

    Sign up for a monthly gift of $25 and as a bear-sized thank you, Paddington will send your child a personalised postcard packed with loads of goodies every month. With each pack your child will explore distant lands and learn about a different country and culture with Paddington.  

    We fully endorse Paddington’s decision to keep a marmalade sandwich in his hat, in case of an emergency. And we're just as prepared! Your monthly donations will go even further to support UNICEF’s life-saving work for kids before, during and after emergencies strike. With help from you and Paddington, UNICEF can continue to build a brighter future for all kids, everywhere!
