  • We have made the cover story of the Pittsburgh City Paper. The article is entitled How the Rusyns Could Save Civilization, and contains interviews with a number of our people including several board members. The author, Chris Potter, does an excellent job of untangling our history and for a non-Rusyn, this is an unparalleled accomplishment.   Please visit: www.pghcitypaper.com

 MISSION STATEMENT: The purpose of the Carpatho-Rusyn Society is to sustain, as worthy of preserving and perpetuation in their own right, the distinct culture, history, language, and heritage of the Carpatho-Rusyn people. With this worthwhile cultural activity as our aim, we shall work to collect, preserve, and disseminate historical, genealogical, linguistic, and ethno-cultural information about Carpatho-Rusyns. We hold in high esteem the continuity of life which connects the living Rusyn culture to its treasured and ancient heritage. We, therefore, seek to nurture the expression of this knowledge and opportunity to learn, express, share, and enjoy the beauty and life affirming values of a living Rusyn heritage.
