How much has already been paid

"Student Package"

provides a one-Time assistance of 5,000 UAH for families of first-graders that can be spent on educational materials: stationery, books, clothing, or footwear. Most families use these funds to purchase clothing.

The budget for the program in 2025 is 1.22 billion UAH. As of mid-November, 84% of the plan has been fulfilled - over a billion UAH has been received by about 202 thousand families, of which more than 730 million UAH has already been spent on necessary purchases.

The program is implemented within the framework of the initiative of the President of Ukraine and was developed by the Ministry of Social Policy in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Ministry of Education and Science, the Pension Fund, and the State Service for Family and Children Affairs. Among the partners are UNDP and the Swiss-Ukrainian project DECIDE.

In addition, a new program has already been launched

"Winter Support"

, which provides assistance of 1,000 UAH - it can also be applied for online.

The state assistance under the “Student Package” program remains an important resource for supporting families with children, providing them with necessary educational materials. With the continuation of initiatives such as “Winter Support,” the government aims to create conditions for parents facing financial difficulties, especially in the current challenges.
