Candle of Hope

For over 20 years, UUARC has been assistng the writers and poets who are poor, ill, and disabled dissidents from the Soviet Union reign over Ukraine. They are given $20 a month to help supplement their meager and almost non-existent pensions as they continue to educate newer generations through their literary works. They are weak in the body, but strong in spirit. They serve the Ukrainian people with their talents, and they are infinitely grateful to UUARC's kind donors for their help.

 

Today we are proud to support 11 such writers, below are six and their stories.
