To ensure that people had a chance to have a plate of traditional Ukrainian food during the 47th Annual Pysanka Festival, that was mostly online, Holy Trinity Catering had a Pysanka Festival Ukrainian Plate Take-Out meal available for people to purchase on July 4.
Holy Trinity Catering received a total of around 40 orders for this meal.
Lorraine Stoyko, Volunteer Organizer and Secretary for Holy Trinity Ukrainian Catholic Church (Parish) prepared this meal and organized this event with many volunteers from the parish. “100% of the funds raised will support the parish’s needs. Once or twice a year we choose a community cause to donate towards, such as the Christmas Bureau or Food Bank,” Stoyko explained. “However due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the church has suffered a significant decline in fundraising income, as many other religious and nonprofit organizations have as well. And so at this time are fundraising for our church’s needs.”
People who bought this meal before said they continue to purchase it because it is delicious. For people who didn’t have a chance to buy this meal this time, at the end of each month, people will be able to purchase this traditional Ukrainian meal again.
