Congress of Russian Americans and Russian American Women’s League were sponsors of the recent Russian Imperial Charity Ball, held at the Russian Center SF on Saturday, September 14, 2019.

The charity ball was intended to raise funds for CRA’s “Dunya Fund”, the St.George Pathfinders Russian Scouts, as well as the Russian Children Benevolent Society in Los Angeles.  CRA organized a silent auction to include funds raised from the auction towards the humanitarian aid for Dunya Bykon, daughter of Father Alexei Bykon, who was born with Spina Bifida and requires further medical support, treatment and surgery to enable her to walk.
