The present invention relates to a dispenser for a refrigerator. The dispenser includes a housing that is mounted on a front surface of a door to define an external appearance and has a recessed portion formed to be depressed rearward; a dispensing port for discharging water delivered from a main body of the refrigerator to the recessed portion of the housing, a water-dispensing button unit having a water-dispensing button pressed by force exerted by a user to receive a signal necessary for the discharge of the water from the dispensing port; an actuating switch operated by the water-dispensing button unit to generate a signal for opening and closing the dispensing port; and a driving lever for connecting the actuating switch and the water-dispensing button to drive the actuating switch by the operation of the water-dispensing button According to the present invention, the water discharged from the dispensing port is effectively avoided from being transferred to the actuating switch, thereby preventing the occurrence of a short circuit in the actuating switch.
