With the war in Ukraine and the aggressor's attempts to annihilate the Ukrainian identity, Gordon spearheaded the Shevchenko Foundation’s grant and scholarship programs to support the custodians of the Ukrainian creative community who find themselves displaced in our Canadian communities.
TSF congratulates all of the LOCAL HEROES recognized for their selfless dedication to the community and thank you Shumka – for your commitment to nurturing a thriving Ukrainian culture in Canada!

The Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund (CFWWIRF) was established to commemorate and educate Canadians about Canada's first national internment operations of 1914 to 1920.
With funding from the CFWWIRF, the National Ukrainian Canadian Congress launched an Internment Education Campaign aimed at reaching thousands of Canadians on various media platforms. The campaign promotes awareness of First World War Internment Operations using a series of innovative video ads and still images that are being featured on social media and with BellMedia partners including CTV News, TSN, and Discovery Channel.
Please watch the video and share widely to raise awareness.
