Background information 
  
The USA/USA (Ukrainian Students' Association in the United States ) 
is a Program of the Coordinating Committee to Aid Ukraine ( USA ), Inc., 
a 501(c)3 organization.  Its mission is to help talented young Ukrainians 
receive a world-class education and use it for the betterment of Ukraine .  
To date, forty-six students have earned full four-year financial-aid 
packages at leading Western universities as a direct result of this Program.  
With an average scholarship to a leading college or university over the 
Program's 16-year existence averaging about $35,000 a year, the USA/USA 
is directly responsible for helping Ukrainian students win approximately $6.5 
million to finance their studies.  Countless other Ukrainians have earned 
additional grants using the information and networking possibilities provided 
by the Program. 
  
Our event will have a fundraising element, and I hope the opportunity of 
supporting us may interest you. The USA/USA Program is privately sponsored. 
In the recent past, several alumni, private donors and financial organizations 
have stepped up to support the work of the Program.  We are currently 
expanding our activities; thus, we are looking to work with new supporters 
who believe in the benefits of Western education for young talents. Please 
kindly review four levels of partnership with our donors: 
  
Dedication Level – $500 
  
Silver Level — $2,500 
  
Gold Level — $5,000 
  
Platinum Level — $10,000 
  
Our generous sponsors, Adrian J. Slywotzky and Christine Balko Slywotzky, will 
match the first $60,000 of donations made or pledged at the event dollar for dollar, 
turning the amount into $120,000. Please note that all donations to the USA/USA 
Program are tax-deductible, and the levels of partnership are cumulative.  If you 
would like to make an immediate pledge, please let us know at least a week before 
the event so that we could recognize your generosity in the event program. 
  
This year we are celebrating the 15-year anniversary since the first USA/USA 
students have arrived to the United States , so please come celebrate with us! I 
am looking forward to our meeting in September!
