Hand-In-Hand Grant Contest

Our project "Horse for a Teacher" took part in the "on-site" competition of the Charitable Foundation "Schools of Peace" on the topic "Mental health and combating burnout of teachers and tutors working with the integration of children with special needs."

The organization of the competition was excellent. Participants were given the opportunity to take a free training course on project management and team management, and were introduced to examples of successful programs. All this played an important role in preparing the final presentation of our project.

Our Perm regional public organization "Equestrian Club "Doctor Horse"" took 2nd place and as a reward received the opportunity to individually work on a grant application with mentor Anastasia Babicheva. During the work, we identified all the shortcomings of the project, sorted everything out, emphasized the strengths and understood in which direction it is better to move.

We thank the foundation team and, in particular, project manager Ekaterina Vishnevskaya for their professionalism, expertise, sensitive and attentive attitude during the meetings. Maximum benefit and support! It feels like you do your work with soul. This was a very valuable experience for us. We hope for further cooperation in new projects.

We express our deep appreciation and gratitude for the excellent organization of the grant competition, the very rich, thoughtful, informative and interesting meetings, and most importantly, for the feedback and caring approach to the matter.

Special thanks to you, Ekaterina! You were always in touch, provided assistance and support to all participants. Believe me, having experience of participating in other grant competitions, we were able to see the difference in the approach to the matter. Your approach is unique and inimitable!

Thank you for being there and continuing to help those who are interested!

We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your competition. We participated for the first time and received a lot of useful information during the online sessions you organized. These meetings significantly expanded our knowledge about participation in grant competitions, and we highly appreciate the opportunity given to us.

Perhaps we got a little confused in preparing the presentation, trying to fit into the competition conditions and take into account all the requirements of the experts speaking. Nevertheless, this experience was extremely useful for us. The mentoring meeting with the partner and digital development director of the Philin Philgood group Taras Skulov was especially valuable. He revealed in detail the gaps in our project, laid everything out on the shelves and gave valuable recommendations for the further development and implementation of our idea. We immediately started working in this direction.

I would also like to note how well the final meeting of the contestants in Moscow was organized. Many thanks to the project organizers for their sensitive and educational support.
