Annual Easter Basket Initiative During the month preceding Easter, the Branch 56 Social Welfare Committee, chaired by Halya Lisnyczyj, prepared Easter baskets for the community’s elderly, ill, shut-ins, and those in need. Some 25 baskets were assembled with home-made babkas and traditional foods, and then distributed by branch volunteers who personally visited the recipients. While the baking and assembling typically take place at St. Andrew’s Ukrainian Religious and Cultural Center in North Port, the Center is under renovation, so this year our East - er basket project took place at the Lisnyczyj residence.

Branch 56 members were invited to install colorful displays in libraries across Charlotte and Sarasota Counties. Member Sla - va Stefanyshyn chaired a committee of Branch 56 members who arranged for the displays: cases filled with Ukrainian literature and crafts, such as wood carvings and embroider - ies. She also arranged for lectures, demonstrations, and workshops about py - sanky and other Ukrainian crafts by Branch 56 secre - tary Bohdana Puzyk, which were very well attended.
