Regrant Program
The Hope for Ukraine Regrant Program aims to provide financial support to US and Ukraine-based nonprofits actively addressing the rapid response and long-term needs of Ukraine’s people, with a particular emphasis on women-led and Ukraine-led smaller nonprofits with budgets below $500,000. The goal is to strengthen the impact of partners, focusing on both direct support in Ukraine and assistance for refugees in the US.
