GoRodyna

The socio-educational project “School Social Entrepreneurship ‘GoRodyna’” is implemented by the team of the public organization “Community Fund ‘The Future Belongs To You’.”

The main idea of the initiative is to create a modern youth space where children, teenagers, and young people master the basics of social entrepreneurship. The project includes the production of special workwear, the purchase of modern teamwork games, the printing of textbooks and diaries for 8th-grade students, and the arrangement of a comfortable location with furniture and equipment for therapeutic tea gatherings.

Beyond strengthening the material base, a key stage is a series of trainings and master classes that prepare young people for active participation in entrepreneurial activities. The project combines education with hands-on practice. Community craftsmen, teachers, and psychologists organize workshops, activities, and art therapy sessions. Special focus is placed on producing herbal teas, dried fruits, and handmade products.

Handmade creation becomes a powerful tool for self-expression and creativity, transforming everyday materials into unique products with real market potential. Participants also engage in gingerbread painting, where they learn—through play—to calculate production costs and understand the economics of production. This approach helps them feel like real entrepreneurs and see tangible results of their work.

The project features educational sessions, workshops, and community events, alongside an information campaign to engage a wider audience. Children and youth from the Bereziv community, including those from vulnerable groups, actively participate.

As a result, participants gain practical experience in production, financial planning, and teamwork, supporting their career development and fostering entrepreneurial thinking. The project also strengthens youth socialization, encourages community engagement, and promotes the values of sustainable development and social entrepreneurship.
