16 WWW.UNWLA.ORG “НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, ЛИПЕНЬ-СЕРПЕНЬ 2015 On Monday, May 18, 2015, I met with His Grace Bishop Daniel at the Consistory Offices of the Metropolia of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA in South Bound Brook, NJ. During the two-hour meeting, we discussed the common pro- jects of the Ukrainian-American organizations in the United States and their ability to reach out to the wounded soldiers and refugees of the present armed conflict in Ukraine. Bishop Daniel’s nu- merous mission trips to Ukraine, most recently on May 11th to the L’viv Military Hospital, are well known to the Ukrainian diaspora and to the UN- WLA membership. The UNWLA itself has been helping the wounded in this particular hospital. (Please see the June issue of Our Life for the lat- est information.) Most recently, we have been fo- cusing on helping Dr. Danylov, Director of the Rehabilitation Center in this hospital. In the presence of His Eminence Metro- politan Antony, Primate of the Ukrainian Ortho- dox Church of the USA, I presented His Grace Bishop Daniel, President of the Consistory of the UOC of the USA, with a check in the amount of $10,000. These funds were to be distributed by the Bishop during his next mission. Bishop Daniel confirmed that a receipt with the UNWLA and UOC logos would be created and signed by each recipient of this assistance. Pictures would also be taken whenever possible. This effort is part of the UNWLA’s ongo- ing project through the UNWLA War Victims Bishop Daniel at the center for the displaced persons from Donbas.

Such joint projects allow our organization to broaden its access and to assist the persons whom we might not otherwise be able to reach. Bishop Daniel departed for his next mis- sion during the week of May 25th. Assistance to the refugees from Eastern Ukraine staying in Kyiv was one of his major goals, as had been discussed during our meeting. At the IDP center outside Kyiv, some 180 men, women, and children be- came aid recipients of a total of $30,000 collected by the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA, donated by the Ukrainian National Women's League of America through Bishop Daniel, and raised by the Ukrainian Heritage Club of North- ern California. The Bishop learned in detail about the latest plans and achievements of the residents of this displaced community. Bishop Daniel re- quested and was given a personal tour of a newly established local farm, which is being cared for by the residents of the center. Over 300 chickens, geese, ducks, and turkeys are raised on this farm with the goal of providing proper nutrition for the children and adults in residence. Thanks to the UNWLA’s collaboration with the Ukrainian Or- thodox Church of the USA, financial assistance was successfully delivered to the dislocated popu- lation of the Donets’k and Luhans’k regions pres- ently living in Kyiv. During this mission, His Grace Bishop Daniel had also planned to travel to the eastern
