SEED 2026 Mini-Grant Program
SEED (Support for Education, Empowerment, and Development) is proud to announce the launch of the 2026 Mini-Grant Program for educators in Ukraine.
More than four years after Russia’s full-scale invasion, Ukrainian teachers continue to educate, support, and inspire students despite air raid alerts, displacement, damaged infrastructure, and ongoing uncertainty. While schools and communities face enormous challenges, educators remain at the heart of Ukraine’s recovery and future.
The SEED Mini-Grant Program was created to support these educators by providing practical resources that help turn creative ideas into meaningful learning opportunities. Through small grants, we fund classroom projects, educational materials, technology, student well-being initiatives, and other activities that strengthen learning and school communities.
In 2025, educators from across Ukraine submitted more than 1,100 project proposals, demonstrating extraordinary creativity, resilience, and dedication to their students. We are excited to continue this work in 2026 and support even more teacher-led initiatives that make a lasting impact in classrooms across Ukraine.
Applications for the 2026 Mini-Grant Program will open on July 1, 2026.
