On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Ukrainian-Canadian Society of Vancouver Island, I extend warm greetings and heartfelt wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

This year has been a waved journey filled with shared moments of unity, cultural celebration, and community strength. Together, we have shown the power of our friendship and collaboration that makes our society a vibrant and important part of Vancouver Island.

With your generous support, we organized many events in the spirit of Ukrainian unity such as concerts, Ukrainian suppers, cultural workshops, Meet & Greet, and other events. In addition, together, we renovated the premises of the Ukrainian Cultural Centre, creating a comfortable space for joint gatherings and entertainment. We continue to think and jointly support our defenders in Ukraine in different ways for our victory next year.

Rest assured, we sincerely appreciate everything you have done for the future of the Ukrainian community including your continued newcomers’ support. Many of newly arrived are far away from friends and family, and it’s so important for them to have a shoulder here to lean on. Your contributions make our society stronger, and we look forward to another year of shared experiences and achievements. 

May the approaching New Year usher in boundless happiness, prosperity, and good health for you and your loved ones, as well as victory and justice for Ukraine. May each day unfold with new opportunities, fostering a prosperity both as individuals and as a unified family.
 
See you in 2024!
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to Heroes! 

With warm regards,
Andriy Fabrikov 
UCCSVI President
