The U.S.-Ukraine Foundation awards $85,000 for educational purposes in Ukraine
The U.S.-Ukraine Foundation recently awarded $64,000 in scholarships to 78 Ukrainian college students along with $21,000 for English language books to schools in Dubno and Slavuta for the 2007-2008 academic year through its Sutaruk Scholarship Program.
Students from the communities of Netishyn and Slavuta (Khmelnytska oblast) and Dubno (Rivenska oblast) are eligible for awards through the Sutaruk Scholarship Program. The program recognizes academic achievement and English proficiency on the part of students.
Funding comes from the Sutaruk Foundation of Michigan, which has donated nearly $200,000 over the past three years to the U.S.-Ukraine Foundation for educational purposes in Ukraine.
The Sutaruk Foundation, established in 2003, honors the memory of Alex Sutaruk and his parents, John and Catherine Sutar, and their commitment to self-reliance, independence, hope for the future, and education. The foundation invests in programs that fulfill these qualities in four specific categories: environmental preservation, university scholarship for deserving students, improvement in quality of life for senior citizens and the needy, and a stronger Ukraine.
Over the past two years, the U.S.-Ukraine Foundation has distributed $109,000 in educational support through the Sutaruk Program, along with $6,600 for an environmental project.
Kathleen Lizabeth Meyer, Board Member of the Sutaruk Foundation, stated, "This scholarship program is so important because these young men and women will soon play important roles in the evolution of Ukraine's economy, government, and legal system. The Sutaruk Foundation appreciates the talents and personal achievements of each of these students, and we are so happy to partner with the U.S.-Ukraine Foundation to help them achieve their goals."
The 2007-2008 awards were presented at the Cultural Center in Dubno, through the efforts of Vadym Netreba from the city’s Department of Education. The U.S.-Ukraine Foundation was represented by Chrystia Sonevytska of the Foundation’s Washington office and Iryna Lasowska of the Lviv office.
