As the preeminent Ukrainian philanthropic body in Canada, the
Shevchenko Foundation contributes to the strength of Ukrainian
identity and helps shape Canada into a home for diverse and
vibrant communities, a benefit to all Canadians.
The Shevchenko Foundation’s reputation of professionalism and
prominent role in the community is recognized by thousands of
individual donors and supporters for 50 years and by the Canadian
government, entrusting the Foundation in the management of
the Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund’s $10

By giving to the Shevchenko Foundation you are funding
many initiatives by artists, educators, performers, community
organization and cultural associations that together make a
difference in the lives of all Canadians and Ukrainians. I encourage
you to join me in supporting this crucial work and in building a
sustainable future for our community.
