63 Impactful Business Plans: Results of the “Mini-Grants 2025” Programme

In partnership with the World Food Programme, the Ukrainian Red Cross implemented the “Mini-Grants 2025” programme in the Savyntsi and Barvinkove communities of the Kharkiv region.

A total of 100 participants were selected, of whom 79 completed specialised training, gaining valuable knowledge and skills to develop their own business plans. For many, this marked the start of a new chapter — a stage of confidence, professional growth, and the restoration of personal resources.

By the end of the programme, 63 business plans were recommended for implementation — real stories of people ready to work, grow, and rebuild their communities through their own enterprises.

The Ukrainian Red Cross ensures that support reaches people where it is needed most. This initiative helps restore strength, self-belief, and creates conditions for economic and social recovery in frontline communities.
