ABBA's song Chiquitita has raised over US$5 million for UNICEF since its release in 1979. This funding supports various programs aimed at protecting vulnerable children from abuse and violence. The pledge originated during a concert at the United Nations to promote children's rights. In 2021, ABBA extended its support by pledging royalties from another song to UNICEF.
