Krasnoyarsk's 17 community projects win grants in Russia's boldest funding round yet
A total of 49 community projects across Russia have secured funding in a recent grant competition. Among them, 17 winning initiatives come from Krasnoyarsk, covering areas like family support, education, and cultural preservation. Organisers noted this year's entries were unusually large in scale and variety.
The competition ran from November 10 to December 22, 2025, attracting 159 applications. Three separate grant programmes were on offer: Pole of Opportunity, Your Territory, and Grant of Opportunity. Alexander Sabeev, the foundation's CEO, highlighted the growing number of submissions as a sign of stronger regional involvement and trust in the process.
In Krasnoyarsk, funded projects include the Sprout Agro-Lab for agricultural education, a new recreational space at Nerika Ski Sports Complex, and Heart of the North, a creative workshop for people with disabilities. Other initiatives focus on mining careers, family wellbeing, and preserving local traditions.
Meanwhile, in Lesosibirsk, the foundation backed schemes like Energy of Sport, the 33 Ideas community programme, a therapy dog project, and the We Are Together choir. The jury described this year's entries as more ambitious and diverse than in previous years.
The 49 winning projects will now move forward with funding. Krasnoyarsk's 17 successful bids reflect a broad range of local priorities, from sports and education to social inclusion. Organisers expect the initiatives to roll out in the coming months.
