13 young people in Lviv received keys to their own apartments: the story of Tetiana and Ridni Foundation.
Thirteen young people in Lviv who grew up without parental care have received keys to their own apartments. Among them is Tetiana Perevezentseva, whose journey to her own home was supported both financially and through mentorship by the Ridni Foundation.
The purchase of the housing was made possible through a municipal co-financing program, where the Lviv City Council covers 70% of the cost, while the remaining 30% is provided by the participants, their guardians, or charitable organizations. This year, the city allocated 12.8 million UAH, providing housing for 13 individuals.
Tetiana’s story is a testament to how perseverance meets support. Raised in state institutions since childhood, she always dreamed of stability. To raise her 30% contribution, Tetiana worked, saved money, and launched a fundraising campaign. The Ridni Foundation helped accumulate the necessary amount by contributing 300,000 UAH to the funds raised by Tetiana and other generous donors.
This is the second time we have partnered with the city to help a young person obtain their own home. Such synergy is incredibly valuable because a home represents a foundation and security. We are thrilled that Tetiana now has her own space to build her future.
Since 2016, a total of 58 orphans and children deprived of parental care have acquired their own homes in Lviv through this program. Ridni Foundation continues to support this initiative, helping its residents on their path to independence.
