Legacies in Korea-U.S. Relations – Dr. David Kim

The Korea Society celebrates its 55th anniversary with the launch of a Legacies in Korea-U.S. Relations series, saluting senior contributors to the bilateral relationship in humanitarian affairs, policy, business, or academe. The first employee hired by Harry Holt on his arrival in Korea in 1956, David Kim pioneered intercountry adoption in the modern era. It was Dr. Kim’s knowledge of Korea and his unwavering tenacity that helped Holt maneuver uncharted bureaucratic and procedural waters. More than 55 years later, Kim remains an eloquent champion for homeless and abandoned children worldwide. The David Kim Endowment for Children with Special Needs honors his 55 years of dedicated service to the tens of thousands of children whose lives he touched forever.
