Would our mission and work resonate with your customers, clients or employees? We need corporate partners who share our values of education, global citizenship, empowerment and determination.

We are a young and ambitious charity registered in England and Wales. Founded by educational expert Yuliya Kosko, we have quickly grown into a vital academic and social support structure for Ukrainian children affected by war.
We have supported over 2,500 children and attracted a passionate team of 65+ volunteers from all over the world, enabled by a dedicated team of British educators and Ukrainian refugees in the UK.

We are empowering students to become global citizens, who will be equipped to build a new independent country and establish social, political and business relationships with Europe and the rest of the world.
We need corporate partners who share our vision and want to invest in the growth of Svitlo School. Work with us to provide more Ukrainian children with high quality academic and social education in a safe, stable community where curiosity, creativity and friendships flourish.
"Investing in education for Ukraine's children, no matter where they reside, is the best investment we can make in the country's future." Regina De Dominicis, UNICEF Regional Director for Europe, Aug 2023.
Through a programme of fundraising, a group of EBRD employees is on course to raise £25,000 which the bank will generously match.
In one event, EBRD employees ran the London Half Marathon, supported on the sidelines by our Founder, Yuliya Kosko. Yuliya also delivered a presentation at EBRD headquarters in London.
Get in touch at hello@svitloschool.com to discuss how we can work together on an impactful fundraising programme tailored to your business.
Donate your time and expertise pro bono
Award-winning law firm Wedlake Bell generously provided Svitlo School with pro bono time and expertise, carrying out the registration process for our charity and all employees.
Sponsor an event,
programme or campaign
Help us grow our network and reach new audiences with sponsorship like Sterling Law, a Legal 500 law firm. Our events have led directly to Svitlo School securing free summer school placements in the UK for Ukrainian children.
Inspire our students by
giving career talks
Leading investment firm the Foresight Group ran a series of career talks for our older students. The EBRD are also leading a course on anti-corruption. These are great opportunities for junior colleagues to practice leadership.

“Svitlo School was my last hope. The last push not to break down completely. Thanks to this school I discovered new talents, got out of my comfort zone, and most importantly, decided on my career path.”
Mariya, Svitlo Student
“When I started my lessons at Svitlo, I realised the whole world was with us. We are children of Ukraine and part of the world society.”
