I'm not sure how long she worked for Peace Corps but she was there for us, group 14 and will be missed.

If anybody knows any more details or how her family is doing, please let us know.

Thanks.

I was a PCV '99 to '01 and I'm in the process of having my developed negatives scanned. Here's the first batch. I'm adding more each month.

New program to take US students to Ukraine next summer!!

Greetings all! It has been awhile since I have been able to post anything and I regret that. However, I am very happy to say that much of the time away was spent wisely in preparing a new service program in Ukraine for next summer.

I will post it here soon for everyone to see.

Take care,
Bill

About Friends of Ukraine

Friends of Ukraine has three main goals:
1. We implement programs, activities, and publications related to Ukraine.
2. We support projects and organizations in Ukraine as appropriate.
3. We promote cultural and commercial exchanges between Ukraine and the US.
Each summer during an annual meeting of all members, projects (that have been submitted for funding and reviewed by board members during quarterly conference calls) are selected, depending on the amount of funding available. Project funding comes directly from membership dues - another reason to join! Click on subtabs under projects (above) to get descriptions of projects funded during past years.
