Peremoha Mini-Grants

Am I Eligible?

To apply, all five of the following must be true. If your situation isn’t covered here, please contact us before applying at grants@allianceforukraine.org.

✓   You are a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer, Peace Corps Response Volunteer, or Virtual Service Participant who has completed or closed service. Service in Ukraine is not required.

✓   You have a connection to your Ukrainian partner — direct, or indirect through a U.S. organization — developed during or after Peace Corps service.

✓   Your Ukrainian partner is a registered nonprofit, a small business or social enterprise doing charitable work, a school/college/university, or an unincorporated volunteer group with a designated project manager.

✓   Your Ukrainian partner is located in Ukrainian government-controlled territory.

✓   Your Ukrainian partner can receive funds in USD — by bank transfer, Wise, or PayPal.

Previous Peremoha recipients (both RPCVs and Ukrainian partners) may apply again. For indirect connections, the U.S. organization must email a one-paragraph endorsement before the deadline. See the above linked RFP for full eligibility criteria.

Funding Priorities

For the Fall 2026 round, we are focusing on projects in any of these areas: 

•     Direct humanitarian assistance — medications, food security, heating and energy storage, insulation, shelter supplies, and other essentials.
•     Psychosocial well-being and youth development — after-school programs, arts and culture, sports, and peer support for children, youth, and families.
•     Local livelihoods — skills training, vocational workshops, or small assets that help community members, especially IDPs and veterans, build economic opportunity.
•     Community stabilization and social cohesion — IDP integration, civic engagement, cultural continuity, and stronger volunteer capacity.

Across all areas, we welcome projects serving vulnerable populations, including IDPs, veterans, persons with disabilities, women, children, seniors, and Roma.
