UESA, FoLU, and Kobzar Society Donate PCs to Crimean Schoolchildren

Earlier in 2004, the National Board of the UESA, together with the Friends of Lviv University (FoLU) (headed by UESA New Jersey Chpater member Mrs. Oksana Maziar), jointly sponsored the donation of two personal computers (PCs) to a Ukrainian elementary school in Crimea, Ukraine. The school receiving the PCs is reported to be the only Ukrainian-language school operating in Crimea at this time.

The PCs were donated through the Lehighton, Pennsylavania-based Kobzar Society (headed by UESA Philadelphia Chpetr member Mr. Orest Hanas). The Kobzar Society is a non-profit organization which has arranged for the shipment of a multitude of PCs to schools in Ukraine over the past several years. Funds for the PCs sent to Crimea came directly from UESA member donations, a donation by FoLU, and matching funds from the UESA National Board.

Thank you to all UESA members whose donations made this worthwhile project possible!
