During 2009, the UM promoted its activities in numerous ways, including throug h articles and press releases published in the Ukrainian and American press. The museum’s own e - news spreads the word to more than 7,000 readers every month. Ms. Shust concluded her presentation with a heartfelt “thank you” to the many volunteers who devote so much of their time and energy to ensuring the Ukrainian Museum’s success.
