XXXIІI Конвенція СУА 204 We are proud to report that Branch 91 membership has increased by 15 since the previous UNWLA convention in 2021. During the past three years, our activities included Den’ Nezalezhnosty flag-raising events, Ukrainian Christmas tree displays, as well as folk art displays at the Eckley Miners’ Village, the Bethlehem Public Library, and Moravian University. Our biggest event was an Ivana Kupala Festival at The Ice House in Bethlehem featuring a stage show with Ukrainian dance troupes, singers, and a renowned violinist. As well as exhibits such as gerdany, headdresses, pysanky , dioramas, wreath-making workshops, genealogy, Ukrainian photo stands, and more. Annual events also included Holodomor memorial services, panakhydy, at local Ukrainian churches, in particular a 90th anniversary remembrance event, with a Holodomor survivor as a guest speaker, accompanied by a food drive. In 2021, our Branch donated a modest $325 to UNWLA National. However, 2022 was a different story. Beginning with russia’s brutal escalation of the invasion of Ukraine in February, the Branch raised and contributed $25,000 for medical supplies such as fixators and wound vacs, and then an additional $2,455 for other causes. In 2023, we again sent $13,501 for fixators and wound vacs and $7,750 for the UNWLA Keep Ukraine Warm initiative, and $17,067.71 to other humanitarian causes.
