OUR LIFE Monthly, published by Ukrainian National Women’s League o f America Vol. LVIII JANUARY 2001 Editor: TAMARA STADNYCHENKO FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all those who celebrate with Ukraine according to the Julian Calendar. The New Year brings new problems and a need for new programs. On December 2, 2000 the Board of Directors of the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America held its annual meeting. The Board resolved that two priorities for the coming year should be attracting new membership and paying more attention to the needs of our elderly members. Dear Members, we also ask that you continue to support existing projects and programs, especially the O. Lotocky Fund and the Publishing Fund of Our Life. Without our printed word and our National office we could not exist or be as visible as we should be, but these services are costly and we ask for your continued support for our organizational needs. Please be generous. As founders of the Ukrainian Museum in New York, it is our duty to raise funds for its benefit. Just recently, Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Shklar of California presented the Ukrainian Museum with a truly magnanimous gift. The three and a half million dollar contribution, one million of which is in the form of matching funds, will greatly help the museum’s endeavors to preserve our Ukrainian heritage in a suitable environment. We encourage all of you to make donations to the Ukrainian Museum and to seek additional support for this worthy cause. The UNWLA wishes to congratulate Olha Hnateyko, President of UMNY, for her outstanding work. Under her presidency, the Ukrainian Museum will be housed in a new building. Appropriately, this is happening at a time when the United Nations is honoring volunteerism. The UN has proclaimed the year 2001 as the International Year of Volunteering. Volunteers are often not seen and rarely make headlines, but their impact is immense. Throughout its 75 year history, the UNWLA has helped Ukrainians in need around the world. We are proud of the work our organization has done, and especially proud of the volunteer spirit the UNWLA fosters. The UN has asked that we celebrate voluntary service in our midst. This year that we should give special recognition to highlight the achievements of volunteers. In this way we may encourage more people to engage in volunteer activity. The UNWLA Executive Committee wishes to thank generous contributors and volunteers who have supported UNWLA causes throughout our 75 year history, allowing our organization to make a difference in so many lives. We wish all of you health, happiness and joy for helping others. We ask that the Presidents of UNWLA Regional Councils and Branch Presidents acknowledge their members’ volunteerism so that they too can be proud that they were part of this wonderful work. “НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, СІЧЕНЬ 2001 15
