A project that expands the economic opportunities of war-affected women. We aim to support Ukrainian women in their professional aspirations and reduce the negative economic consequences of the war. Our mission is to help Ukrainian women achieve success and become independent.
Every day Masha Fund takes new steps toward the realization of the mission "Revival of women for the revival of Ukraine". To help women realize themselves in society and integrate into the working environment in Ukraine, we have launched a new direction in women's career guidance – Successful.

Its first project was a series of workshops on various topics: from psychological preparation for change and resume writing to building a personal brand and starting your own business. Lecturers were career specialists, employment consultants and psychologists.

“We would like our women to feel successful. Due to the full-scale war, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian women had to leave their homes and workplaces. Thousands need to change their sphere of activity”, says Tetyana Muratkina, director of the Masha Fund. “According to the statistics of the State Employment Service, as of March 1, 2024, 118,500 unemployed people were registered in Ukraine, and 91,900 of them were women. And these are only official data. Therefore, our goal in working on a new direction is to give an opportunity to as many women as possible to look in the mirror and say: "I am successful."”
The first project of the new direction Successful lasted six months (from October 2023 to March 2024). During this time, 22 online and offline classes were held in Kyiv. More than 250 women joined offline classes in Kyiv and another 1,200 online from all over the country and the world. One month was preparatory.

The workshops were implemented with the support of the international non-governmental organization United for Ukraine.

We decided that we do not plan to stop there and strive to continue helping Ukrainian women restore their economic capacity and achieve financial independence. The Masha Fund investigated the career guidance needs of women in order to understand what requests and obstacles on the way to obtaining the desired profession women have today, what skills they lack, in what field they want to work.

According to the obtained results, we started working on the continuation and improvement of the Successful direction. We plan to help even more women by creating a comprehensive program of career guidance and support in the personal and professional development of women who suffered from the consequences of the Russian-Ukrainian war.

In 2025, we relaunched a series of workshops on career development and entrepreneurship with the support of the Ukrainian women’s clothing brand Gepur under our “Sussessful” project initiative. We organized a series of nine workshops, available in both online and offline formats. The workshops took place in October and November.

The sessions covered a wide range of topics, including:
growth mindset
self-presentation and personal branding
career planning and self-development
networking for professional growth
benefits of volunteering
entrepreneurship and community development
building resilience
the power of personal experience


This series was specifically designed to inspire women who aim to start their own business or advance in their careers, helping them gain new knowledge, skills, and motivation for personal and professional growth.

We would like our women to feel successful!
