On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Ontario Provincial Council of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, the UCC-OPC has initiated the Annual UCC- OPC Trillium Award. This Award honours individuals, both youth and adult, who have made meritorious contributions in a volunteer capacity, to create a strong, vibrant, and active Ukrainian Canadian community in the province of Ontario.
The UCC- OPC Trillium Award for Adults will recognize the outstanding volunteer service and/or exceptional community involvement of individuals, who through their leadership and contributions have made a lasting, positive impact on the Ukrainian Canadian community in the province of Ontario.
The UCC– OPC Trillium Award for Youth will recognize youth (age 16-25) who have made an outstanding contribution to the Ukrainian Canadian community in Ontario, through their volunteer achievements, their leadership, dedication and enthusiasm for community work. The candidates, by their involvement, inspire and encourage other youth to become more involved.
A beautifully designed medallion and lapel pin will be presented to the recipients of the Award at a gala to be held once the Covid-19 restrictions allow.
