Each year, UCCA solemnly commemorates the Holodomor Genocide of 1932-1933 – one of the darkest pages of our people’s history. Marking the solemn anniversary of the Holodomor remains an essential component to educating our youth and raising awareness of  Stalin’s Famine-Genocide of Ukrainians.

UCCA is grateful to our branches and members who not only actively engage their local governments in marking this historic anniversary with local and statewide Proclamations, but also help garner support for Holodomor statements from the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. In 2018, Congress recognized the Holodomor as Genocide, with language emphasizing the deliberate and premediated atrocities committed by the Soviet government against the Ukrainian nation.

Join the Holodomor Descendants' Network

The Holodomor Descendants Network invites Ukrainian Americans born or raised in the United States to participate in an important research study conducted by Brent Bezo from Carleton University.

This study is the first to explore the transgenerational impact of the Holodomor among Ukrainian-Americans, with findings to be shared with the Holodomor Descendants Network. Who Can Participate: – Children of Holodomor Survivors: Born in the United States or outside Ukraine and immigrated to the USA before age 5. – Grandchildren of Holodomor Survivors: Born in the USA – Control Group: Ukrainian-Americans with no familial ties to Holodomor survivors, born in the USA or immigrated before 1963, and spent most of their childhood in the USA.

To mark the approach of the 90th Holodomor anniversary, the Holodomor Descendants Network undertook an oral history project, engaging students in grades 8-12. Ukrainian studies students from across the globe were invited to participate and conduct interviews with Holodomor descendants. These interviews are now accessible through the KONTAKT Next Gen television program and the Holodomor Descendants Network website.

UCCA invites Descendants of Holodomor victims living in the United States to add their voice and support to HDN’s awareness initiatives.
