🪴 What cause are you supporting?
War in Ukraine has been going on for a year. Governments, international organisations, and volunteers are working to provide an immediate response. At the same time, long-term goals are still “on pause”, and small local initiatives are underfunded. We are bridging this gap.
SUN Leaders Program is a 6-months Fellowship Program for young leaders of social projects in Ukraine.
We support Ukrainians working on projects in the spheres of education, healthcare, entrepreneurship, equality, sustainable cities, and EU integration of Ukraine.
Concept validation: our partners Leaders Fund ran a similar program in 2019-2020. The previous three fellows supported were able to scale their project nationwide and impact 240,000 people, win grants, hire new team members, launch a social enterprise, and partner with the government and businesses. After the Program, one of the leaders started working for WHO in Ukraine, another got shortlisted in BBC book contest.
We provide them with:
- 💶 financial assistance — so leaders can focus on their project, and not have to work three jobs;
- 🙌 mentorship and network — for leaders to grow their projects and help more people on the ground.
We are fundraising €300,000 to run SUN Leaders Program for 50 leaders and their projects in 2023.
