Page 14 TESTVÉRISÉG BRANCH 134 - GR. PITTSBURGH, PA Upon the request of Branch Manager, Olga Darnay, the Federation donated $100.00 to the Hungarian Reformed Church of Duquesne, PA on the occasion of their Hungarian Heritage Day Celebration. As a token of appreciation, the church addressed a letter to the Federation reading as follows: “On behalf of the minister and the congregation of the Hungarian Reformed Church in Duquesne, I want to personally thank the HRFA for its kind donation towards our Hungarian Heritage Day Celebration on July 25th. We really had an outstanding day - far exceeding our expectations. Everyone pitched in and made the occasion a huge success.” Photo taken in Ligonier, PA as President of the HRFA, George Dózsa presents the check to Lucille Chanyi, Treasurer of the Hungarian Reformed Church, Duquesne, PA.
