My City is a Ukrainian crowdfunding platform
Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come
My City is a Ukrainian crowdfunding platform helping NGOs, charitable foundations, volunteers, and active communities raise funds for social and community projects since 2015. It also provides project authors with knowledge about the basics of fundraising and crowdfunding.
Our mission
To support authors in implementing social projects for improving cities, providing them with the necessary knowledge and resources for effective crowdfunding.
Our vision
To develop a culture of crowdfunding, thanks to a platform that unites a conscious Ukrainian society: people who strive for fundamental changes and take concrete steps for this.
Principles
Transparency
We are open and honest in all aspects of our operations. We provide complete information on using collected funds and project implementation processes. Community trust is a priority for us.
Support
We help authors implement their social projects. Our team is always there, from the first idea to the successful completion of the project.
Responsibility
We don't just collect funds. We don't wait for someone to do something for us. We change our cities for the better. Likewise, we can move from the Third World to the First without changing location.

A story that
continues
We created and implemented our educational programs with the idea that we should be as helpful as possible in doing what we do best - assisting others. The programs have become a small place of strength for participants because learning for the sake of learning is not our story. Thanks to the work of our team, everyone receives knowledge, practical skills in crowdfunding on the example of their campaign, and warm professional support.
