Stories from the 2025 Mini-Grant Program

In 2025, Ukrainian educators from 71 schools turned small grants into meaningful learning opportunities for their students.

These stories highlight teachers who responded to real classroom needs with creativity, care, and determination. Their projects supported STEM learning, media literacy, mental health, inclusion, cultural education, and safe spaces for students growing up during the war.

The 2025 program also marked an important milestone for SEED. With donor support and partner collaboration, we helped bring teacher-led ideas to life across Ukraine.

Below are a few featured stories from the educators and schools supported through the 2025 Mini-Grant Program.
