Please join friends of the Ukrainian Catholic University from the East Coast for a fun and celebratory afternoon!

SUNDAY, November 1, 2020, 1:00 to 3:00 PM Eastern Time

For more than 17 years, UCU Friends Committees have been organizing successful events in support of Ukrainian Catholic University in major U.S. cities. This year is difficult for all of us, but also a unique opportunity to invite all of our friends from the entire East Coast to meet live online and hear directly from UCU, listen to UCU students and alumni, as well as Archbishop Borys Gudziak and others, watch testimonies of other friends about why they support UCU, and much more. Like our prior events, this Virtual Event promises to be warm, inspiring and enjoyable.
