Winter Support for Ukrainians

Over a million Ukrainians have applied for 'Winter Support' through Ukrposhta, however, mistakes arise during calculations that lead to the rejection of some payments. Applications for 'Winter Support' are accepted until December 24, 2025, allowing many citizens to take advantage of this opportunity.

The Importance of Proper Use of Funds

Ukrposhta emphasizes the importance of proper use of funds.

'To save you time and nerves in the offices, we once again explain what these funds can be spent on and what they cannot be spent on,' representatives of the institution note.

  • Payment of utility services
  • Postal services
  • Subscription to Ukrainian newspapers and magazines
  • Medicines and other products made in Ukraine
  • Donations to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Ukrposhta also gives an example: 'Conditionally: you can pay for Ukrainian lard, but not for Spanish ham.' This emphasizes that it is important to adhere to the rules for using funds to avoid problems with receiving support.

The 'Winter Support' system is an important tool for supporting Ukrainians in difficult times, especially given the economic situation in the country. The continuation of the acceptance of applications until the end of 2025 demonstrates the state's desire to ensure financial assistance accessibility for citizens. It is important for Ukrainians to be aware of the rules for using these funds to avoid misunderstandings and problems with receiving assistance.
