XXXIІI Конвенція СУА 100 Relating to Holodomor projects, the UNWLA received funds from the “Naftali Grant” that supports educational and cultural programs. Several projects were worthy of receiving stipends from this grant. A story of the horrors a family endured under the Holodomor and Holocaust, the project “Two Regimes” presents this history through a narrative and paintings. A book, which UNWLA supported, lesson plans, film and exhibit are included in this project. The second project related to the Holodomor was the bilingual adaptation by Emma Denson and Dr. Maria Rewakowicz of Vasyl Boychuk’s play “Hunger” with music composed by Virko Baley. As a unique form of homage to the Holodomor, with non-Ukrainian artists and reaching out to non-Ukrainian audiences, the production was deserving of support. Several performances were presented at The Ukrainian Museum in New York City, and at a local Irish theater. A full-length play is in the planning stages. The third recipient of funds was the collaborative project between Lidia Bodnar-Balahurtak and Dr. Victoria Malko on a Holodomor book of illustrations from various artists depicting the agony of the Holodomor with commentary from Holodomor experts. This color photo album brings awareness to the public of the Holodomor, making a correlation with Ukraine’s present genocide. Grants in support of cultural projects are crucial to continue the UNWLA’s efforts to popularize Ukraine’s heritage throughout American commu-nities. Obtaining these grants will be an ongoing goal of the Cultural Affairs Committee. We continue to support The Women’s Bandura Ensemble of North America (WBENA) as an important promoter of our Ukrainian heritage. They organize concerts and fundraising events for humanitarian aid for Ukraine in many communities outside the Ukrainian diaspora, as well as reaching out to institutions of higher learning. The UNWLA supports their multifaceted work with stipends to help them continue their diverse projects. Inspired by the rich Ukrainian musical traditions, the Women’s Bandura Ensemble brings together talented female bandurists from Canada and the United States through regional ensembles to showcase the instrument and create new directions and artistry . We continue to support two established cultural projects significant to the UNWLA’s mission of cultivating Ukrainian literature. The UNWLA Scientific-Literary Fund in the name of Lesya and Petro Kovaliv is an endowment established in 1967 by Lesya and Peter Kovaliv, entrusting the administration of endowment funds to the UNWLA.
