Polish Red Cross begins recruitment for the program “Together for Independence”
“Together for Independence” is a nationwide program dedicated to Ukrainian citizens who are under temporary protection in Poland and reside in collective accommodation centers. The activities offered within the Program aim to assist in achieving independence by leaving the centers, accessing vocational counseling, and participating in integration and adaptation events. The Program is implemented by the Ministry of Interior and Administration (MSWiA) in partnership with the Polish Red Cross (PCK) and the Polish Center for International Assistance (PCPM). It is financed by the funds of the European Union as part of the FAMI.02.SPECIFIC ACTIONS project, Asylum, Migration, and Integration Fund 2021 – 2027 (90%) and the State budget (10%). The total cost of the project is 93,499,172.60 PLN, of which the amount of funding from the European Union is 84,149,255.34 PLN.

PCK provides funding only for full billing periods – each of the same length. For example, if the contract is signed on April 15, the first funding will be from April 15 to May 14, the next from May 15 to June 14 and in a similar pattern for the next four months.
ПЧХ (PCK) передбачає виплату фінансування лише за повні розрахункові періоди – однакової тривалості кожен. Наприклад, якщо договір буде підписано 15 квітня, то перше фінансування буде з 15 квітня до 14 травня, наступне – з 15 травня до 14 червня і за аналогічною схемою протягом наступних чотирьох місяців.
