WASHINGTON - A special Dr. James E. Mace Memorial Holodomor Fund has been established by the Ukrainian Federation of America, Dr. Zenia Chernyk, chairperson, Vera Andryczyk, president. The special memorial fund will be administered as part of the program of the federation, a non-for-profit U.S. charitable and educational organization organized in 1991.

The Ukrainian Federation of America is dedicated to the preservation of Ukrainian culture and heritage and providing assistance to Ukraine in its drive for full democracy as well as social and economic advancement.

Donated funds will be used to support the Holodomor Education and Exhibition Program in Ukraine that Dr. Mace has been involved in, and other projects to honor the life and work of Dr. Mace, as approved by the federation in consultation with Dr. Mace's wife, Natalia Dziubenko-Mace. Ms. Dziubenko-Mace is, in her own right, an outstanding and long-time researcher and writer about the Ukrainian Famine-Genocide of 1932-1933 (known in Ukrainian as the Holodomor, whose literal meaning is death by forced starvation.)

Donations to the Dr. James E. Mace Memorial Holodomor Fund can be made by making out a check or other financial instrument to the Ukrainian Federation of America (in U.S. dollars), designating the donation for the Dr. James E. Mace Memorial Holodomor Fund, and mailing the check to: Dr. Zenia Chernyk, Chairperson, Ukrainian Federation of America, 930 Henrietta Ave., Huntingdon Valley, PA 19006-8502.
