XXXIІI Конвенція СУА 53 During the course of the past three years, a number of changes took place: - Tatyana Tymkiv stepped down as Officer-at- Large; - Iryna Buczkowska stepped down as Chair, Archives Standing Committee and was replaced by Orysia Soroka; - Orysia Soroka stepped down as Secretary and was replaced by Yuliya Penchak (not in this image); - Iryna Chalupa stepped down as Branches-at-Large Liaison East, Natalie Santarsiero assumed the role; - Nora Mason became Branches-at-Large Liaison West. There were numerous changes at the level of the Regional Council Presidents.. The Chairs of UNWLA Standing Committees held regular meetings (often times, once per month) and from 2021 to mid-2023, I held nearly monthly meetings with the chairs themselves, exploring new possibilities for programming and also attending their video conference meetings, when feasible. The National Executive Committee first convened in July 2021 and by the time of the UNWLA XXXIII National Convention in September 2024, will have held 34 monthly meetings as well as numerous emergency meetings in 2022-2023. It is also the responsibility of the National President to organize the agenda and preside over these meetings. Thank you First and foremost, a huge thank you to every single member of this wonderful organization – it was a privilege to meet many of you directly in 2023-2024. I am inspired by the creativity and the dedication to our mission that I witnessed during my visits to the Branches. And equally impressed with the collective efforts of our Members-at-Large led by Olya Czerkas – even though you are all scattered across this great country of ours. To Regional Council Presidents and Branches-at-Large Liaisons , thank you for your regular engagement with the Branches in coordinating the work across our organization – this is where we can make the greatest impact. Very glad to have Nora Mason, past president of Branch 107 in California, as part of the team and for already making a difference. To the chairs of UNWLA Standing Committees : this has been an exceptionally busy three years and you can all be proud of all that you have accomplished. Special thanks to: Marianna Tretiak for her exceptional leadership in steering our advocacy efforts across the nation and for her leadership in the American Coalition for Ukraine; to Orysia Soroka for taking on the huge task of organizing our archives in the New York City office and as a side bonus – beautifying the fifth floor; to Roksolana Sheverack who helped with each iteration of the annual report, and turned data into understandable information; to Oka Hrycak for continuously conversing with our humanitarian aid partners in Ukraine in times of crisis and coordinating , to the extent possible, the humanitarian aid work of the Branches; to Nadia Jaworiw who devotes three full days per week to ensure that students in Ukraine receive their UNWLA scholarships in a timely manner, and that sponsors are continuously engaged. To the editors of Our Life magazine , Editor-in-chief Romana Labrosse and Ukrainian-language editor, Larysa Topolia: thank you for producing a magazine that is both lovely to look at as well as engaging to read. The magazine is our flagship communications vehicle and we can be proud to share it with everyone. To UNWLA Office Administrator Halyna Cherednichenko – thank you for your constant professionalism, diligence and excellent customer service – in spite of coming to work with us when we were being challenged in ways for which we were not always prepared.
