One of the “Winter Support” programs will be launched in January - accepting applications for subsidies for rental housing for internally displaced persons. Prime Minister Denis Shmygal stated this during a government meeting on January 7.

“Another Winter Support program will start operating this month - accepting applications for subsidies for rental housing for internally displaced persons. This will help thousands of our citizens during this difficult time,” he said..

The head of government added that the implementation of the Winter Support initiative will continue in 2025.. He noted that there are already more than 11 million applications for payment of 1,000 hryvnia under the “Winter eSupport” program, and more than 8 million Ukrainians have already received this support.

According to Denis Shmygal, the “eBook” initiative is also being implemented as part of the “Winter Support”. There are already more than 56 thousand applications from those who will turn 18 in 2024.

Let us remind you that state aid “Winter eSupport” in the amount of 1000 UAH is provided to those Ukrainians who are in the country, including children.

These funds can be used to pay for utilities, purchase medicines, donations to the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, purchase Ukrzaliznytsia tickets and other services..

And the eBook program was launched in Ukraine on December 16. Citizens who are 18 years old, starting from January 1, 2024, can receive funds from the state to purchase paper, electronic and audio books in the Ukrainian language. Once funds are credited, they can be spent within three months, but only in stores that have joined the program.
