Yevheniia: Helping a Veteran Find Employment

Yevheniia, a veteran from the Vinnytsia region, has discovered new opportunities thanks to the “Reboot: Expanding Employment Opportunities” project. This project helped her unlock her potential and secure a job that values her experience.

For 28 years, Yevheniia dedicated herself to serving Ukraine, participating in combat operations and enduring significant losses—she sustained a disability during the war and lost her husband, a colonel who died at the front. Despite these challenges, she did not give up and continued to move forward.

After applying to the Ukrainian Red Cross for support, Yevheniia learned about a project backed by the Spanish Red Cross aimed at helping veterans find employment. She received counselling from a career advisor and psychologist, who assisted her in developing a professional CV for the position of veteran’s assistant, tailored to her experience. Yevheniia is currently awaiting a decision on her application and dreams of continuing to help others.
