Levels of Giving & Donor Recognition
The Ukrainian American Archives & Museum of Detroit is sustained by the generosity of individuals and families who believe in preserving and sharing the Ukrainian American story. Every gift—large or small—strengthens our mission, supports exhibitions and educational programs, preserves historical collections, and helps ensure a vibrant cultural future.
​
For more than half a century, our Museum has been a vessel of memory: a place where ship manifests meet family photographs, where embroidered textiles stitched in distant villages live alongside the stories of immigrants who built new lives in Detroit. Each donation helps us safeguard these fragile threads of history so future generations can touch, see, and understand the journeys that brought our community here. Your contribution is not only a gift—it is an act of remembrance, resilience, and love for the heritage that shaped us.
​
In gratitude, donors are recognized on our Donor Wall according to the following levels of giving. Our founder, Roman Dacko, and his wife Ivanna were the first recognized donors at the level of Founder.
