The Ukrainian “koliada” tradition is alive and well. We know that’s true because this is the time of year that various groups visit the homes of their members and supporters with Christmas carols and greetings of the season. “Chy pryimayete vy koliadnykiv? (Will you welcome carolers?), they ask. And, once invited in, they give us the wonderful gift of beautiful and unique Ukrainian “koliadky” (carols). In turn, we thank them with monetary donations for their organizations’ valuable work. For many groups, it should be noted, the koliada is a major fund-raiser.
