Ukraine to Provide Free School Meals for All Children by 2025
In 2025, all Ukrainian schoolchildren will receive free meals daily, expanding upon the current program providing free meals to grades 1-4. This initiative, directed by President Zelenskyy, aims to ensure nutritional support for all students. The expansion follows the successful implementation of free meals for younger students, funded by a 2 billion hryvnia government allocation. Concurrently, a new education support program for children of veterans will launch in 2025.
