Deadline: 29-Apr-2026
Applications are now open for National Competition “Charitable Ukraine”, an annual all-Ukrainian competition that recognizes the best philanthropists, volunteers, businesses, and the most effective charitable initiatives in Ukraine.
This competition seeks to identify and support initiatives that contribute to the development of Ukrainian civil society, especially those focused on social welfare, education, healthcare, and the environment.
The competition aims to provide funding for projects that enhance the lives of vulnerable populations and strengthen community resilience. It encourages organizations that focus on delivering services to those most in need, especially in areas affected by socio-economic challenges, to come forward and showcase their work. The goal is to support initiatives that will foster long-term positive change and build sustainable solutions for the future.
Eligible applicants include registered charitable organizations and institutions that have experience in managing projects aimed at improving public well-being. These can range from grassroots initiatives to more established nonprofits, as long as they demonstrate a clear impact on the local community and align with the broader objectives of the competition. The grant can be used to support various activities, from direct service provision to innovative programs that address pressing social issues.
Applications are reviewed based on the quality of the project proposal, its potential to make a difference, and its alignment with national priorities. The competition is part of a broader effort to recognize and promote philanthropic endeavors that contribute to Ukraine’s rebuilding and development in the post-conflict era.
For organizations looking to apply, it’s crucial to present clear, measurable outcomes and demonstrate how their initiative will lead to tangible improvements in the lives of beneficiaries. The competition also provides a platform for organizations to expand their networks and gain recognition for their work, which can lead to additional opportunities for collaboration and funding.
