UNICEF's Change for Good Initiative

Working as a staff psychiatrist at the Lincoln Regional Center in Lincoln, Nebraska, Dr. Jasung Kim’s holistic and transpersonal approach to psychiatry includes using bibliotherapy, visualization techniques, and guided meditation. Outside of Dr. Jasung Kim’s professional life, he charitably supports the efforts of UNICEF.

Operating worldwide in 170 countries, UNICEF strives to protect the rights of children on a global scale. As a non-profit organization, much of UNICEF’s hard work depends on donations from the public. One of the organization’s initiatives is the Change for Good initiative, which allows people to donate unused foreign currency after a trip abroad.

Created in 1987, Change for Good is UNICEF’s longest-running partnership. Currently, 12 international airlines partner with UNICEF to make donations easier. In the United States, UNICEF has partnered with American Airlines so passengers on select international flights can easily donate any foreign currency they have left over in-flight. Alternately, you can mail UNICEF your donation directly to UNICEF USA, ATTN: Change for Good Program, 125 Maiden Lane, New York, NY 10038.
