Thank you. We feel it’s important to begin our year in review section about The Ukrainian Weekly with these words. As a community newspaper, we are grateful to our partners in this endeavor. First of all our publisher, the Ukrainian National Association, without whom The Weekly and our sister publication Svoboda would not be possible. Second, to our subscribers, who are the raison d’etre of any publication. Third, to our benefactors, whose generous donations go a long way toward helping this newspaper continue its mission. And fourth, to our advertisers whose advertising dollars also are key to the bottom line.
