Care Centre Gets Gift From Foundation
On January 15, Liberal MP Borys Wrzesnewskyj and his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Roman and Irene Wrzesnewskyj, presented a $100,000 cheque
to the Ukrainian Canadian Care Centre from their family’s Dopomoha Ukraini
Foundation. It is the third installment of their $500,000 pledge. In
recognition of their gift, the Centre will name its second floor in memory of
Mr. Borys Wrzesnewskyj’s aunt and uncle, Mr. Mykhailo and Mrs. Jaroslawa
Szafraniuk. The donation was accepted by Irene Holubiec, Chair of the Centre's
Board of Directors and his Eminence Archbishop Yurij, Honourary Co-Chair of the
Home with a Heart Campaign. The campaign is fundraising for the expansion of
the long-term care home and establishment of a secure unit for 32 new residents
with cognitive disorders.
