ХХХI Конвенція СУА 251 UNWLA BRANCH 124, ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA BRANCH-AT-LARGE Standing, l-r: Anna Gulczewskyj, Marion Serna, Ludmyla Semeniuk, Ola Movchan-Novak, Mariya Lipynsky, Stephanie Leddy, Orysia Petrina-Johnson, Volodymyra Kuziw, Irena O. Krywusha, Eva Reinhardt, Maria Bazylak, Irene Badiak. Seated, l-r: Inya Popovich, Irene Thompson, Olya Czerkas, Vera K. Swade, Christine Leddy, Maria Worsley. Branch 124 of St. Petersburg, Florida, was established in 2000, and is a Branch-at-Large. Over the years, our branch has sponsored a wide variety of fundraisers such as brunches during special occasions, educa- tional events, and historic commemorations. Our events raise funds for humanitarian aid to soldiers and their families in Ukraine. We sponsor an elementary, middle school, and high school student in Ukraine by supporting the UNWLA Scholarship Program. Our members are active participants in SPIFF (St. Pe- tersburg International Folk Fair), where the American community is introduced to and educated about Ukrainian culture and traditions. Branch 124 members believe in supporting the community’s elderly, ill, and home-bound by vis- iting them, sending cards on special occasions, making Easter baskets, and showing support in times of need. Memorial masses are held to commemorate historic Ukrainian events and to honor our beloved branch members who have passed to their eternal rest. We believe that learning more about our Ukrainian traditions and culture is important; we there- fore have held a pysanka -making workshop, workshops on traditional holiday foods, baking classes, and a wreath-making class that incorporated the Ukrainian pysanka , and have enjoyed making personalized aprons. Annual and holiday luncheons are held throughout the year. The luncheons provide additional opportunities to socialize and build friendships. Some of our members travel from neighboring communi- ties to attend our monthly meetings, educational classes, and social events. This year, the community and our branch members commemorated the 25 th anniversary of Ukrainian independence. We worked together organizing and implementing a memorable program honor- ing those who have given their lives for Ukraine. Over the years, our branch has worked closely with the St. Petersburg community. Our branch members are grateful to our community members for their com- mitment to and constant support of our branch, Branch 124, St. Petersburg, Florida.
