An appeal for your assistance to help flood victims in Zakarpattia, Ukraine
2001 FLOOD AID


 ·  Mar 23 01 - Consulate of Ukraine appeals for Flood Aid - Звернення Генерального консульства України в Нью-Йорку до українців Америки
 ·  Mar 23 01 - UNWLA appeal for assistance to help flood victims in Zakarpattia, Ukraine
 ·  Mar 23 01 - UACC appeals to Ukrainians in the U.S. to help those suffering from the flood in Zakarpattia
 ·  Mar 23 01 - Zakarpattia Flood Aid: US-Ukraine Foundation Appeal


Once again, the mountainous Zakarpattia region of Ukraine has been inundated by floods. Over 200 villages are submerged under floodwaters, and 13,000 people have been evacuated. There is a lack of fresh water and food; sewage contamination compounds the danger and makes the populace susceptible to disease.

The UNWLA's Social Welfare Committee, in cooperation with Soyuz Ukrainok of the Zakarpattia region, is seeking monetary contributions to purchase medicines for the flood victims. We ask the support of our UNWLA members organized in branches throughout the country, as well as of all people of good will in our communities and beyond. A written request for help is on its way to each UNWLA branch and to members-at-large. We hope you personally will be generous and will seek support for this humanitarian aid effort from your American neighbors as well as from the Ukrainian community.

Contributions to the UNWLA Social Welfare Fund are tax-deductible under provisions of the organization's 501 (c) 3 status. Please send your contributions to:

UNWLA Social Welfare Fund - Floods
108 Second Avenue, New York, NY 10003

Nadia Shmigel, Social Welfare Chair
Iryna Kurowyckyj, UNWLA President
