Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The worldwide charitable organization UNICEF was evidently a pet project of Screen Gems producer Harry Ackerman, who touted the organization's good works in virtually all of his TV programs. Case in point is this episode of Bewitched, which first aired on March 27, 1969. Samantha uses her witchcraft for a good cause when millionaire Mr. Haskell (Herb Voland) reneges on his 10,000-dollar pledge to UNICEF in order to shower luxuries upon his flashy girlfriend, Lila Layton (Sharon Vaughn). "Twitching for UNICEF" was written by Ed Jurist.
