In January of this year, the Ucrainica Research Institute and the National Executive of the League of Ukrainian Canadians in Toronto donated a new subsidy in support of our website “Ivan Mazepa Name”. These institutions also rendered similar subsidies in 2017-2020. We acknowledge this annual support from Canada which helps us to maintain the site and update it with new materials and thus continue to popularize the life and deeds of Hetman Ivan Mazepa and his era, as well as the contemporary publications on these subjects of Ukrainian history. We kindly thank Orest Steciw, M.A., president of the Ucrainica Research Institute and the executive director of the League of Ukrainian Canadians, and hope for further cooperation.
