More than five decades ago, a group of young girls of Ukrainian ancestry who attended public school and did "everything Ukie" together decided to organize a club to continue to learn about and perpetuate their heritage. I was one of these girls; Justine Malaniak was another. Our mothers, members of UNWLA Branch 23, encouraged us to become members of the organization. In 1947, we became Junior Branch 58, Olena Teliha, Detroit. Over the years, Branch 58 members have been referred to as ambassadors of good will, conveying knowledge about Ukraine and her people to the non- Ukrainian community. Members have presented commemorative programs, sung Ukrainian Christmas carols before American women's groups, demonstrated the art of Ukrainian Easter Egg decorating and the art of embroidery for various schools and organizations.
