October is National UNICEF MonthOn September 25th, Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels, declared October National UNICEF month and issued a formal proclamation that was handed to UNICEF Executive Director, Carol Bellamy, during a VIP reception held in her honor at the University of Washington's Kane Hall. Afterwards, about 300 people attended her talk on "A World Fit for Children" and we could not have asked for a more auspicious beginning to the second annual Art of Change for UNICEF, Seattle's celebration of national UNICEF month. What is the Art of Change? Every year in airports across the country, foreign coins are collected from returning travellers. Most of these coins cannot be redeemed and have no value other than as scrap metal. For American travellers this small change is a negligable part of the cost of a vacation. But for large parts of the world - where pennies can make the difference between health and sickness, life and death, this small - change can mean a lot. The Art of Change asks us to examine what we value in life. The Art of Change is the creative process in service of social consciousness and a vehicle for contributing to social change. |
