Welcome
to
UCC-Toronto!
The mandate of the
Ukrainian Canadian Congress
– Toronto Branch is to:
COORDINATE
AND
REPRESENT
THE
UKRAINIAN
CANADIAN
COMMUNITY
IN
TORONTO.
We
believe
this
website
helps
us
deliver
against
this
goal
by
providing
you with a window on our organization and the community we
serve.
We
continue
to
build
our
future
on
the
basis
of
a
very
solid foundation developed and
implemented by generations of Ukrainian Canadians before us. The
Congress has been serving the community for more than half a century
and we continue to do so in an effective and inclusive manner. We
fulfill our mandate by coordinating and leading key community
celebrations, such as Ukraine’s Independence Day (in August),
Remembrance Day (in November), Ukraine's Reunification Day (in
January), and all major community and historic milestones that have a
significant impact on our community.
We
foster
a
community
environment
based
on
equality,
justice,
tolerance,
inclusiveness,
and
respect
by working with member organizations and
community members to enable them to establish their respective roles
within the community. We also help foster the ”special
relationship” that Canada shares with Ukraine and ensure that new
Canadians are welcomed into the community.
In
addition,
we
work
closely
with
the
National
Executive
of
the
UCC
in effectively
representing the Community before the government and media on a variety
of topics of concern, for example Immigration, Justice, and
Multiculturalism.
The
Congress
can
be
characterized
as
having
an
effective,
team-based,
and
professional
management
team, led by a broad spectrum of young leaders
and core group of seasoned veterans dedicated to the further growth and
prosperity of their community.
We'd like
to
take this opportunity to thank the many Board Members, volunteers, and
supporters who contribute so much of their time and effort in executing
a truly ambitious program on behalf of the entire community. We
are proud to be part of such a dedicated team and, as always, we look
to your continued support.
