Since 2025, social assistance for newborns in Ukraine will receive a new format. Instead of a traditional baby pack, parents will receive monetary compensation that can be used to purchase children. This was reported by the Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine.
Instead of a physical set of things previously provided in the form of a "baby pack", newborns will receive a one -time cash payment. Money transfer: funds will be received to a special account with a PrivatBank or other bank involved in the monetization program. Transparent Banks:
The State Children's Service will publish a list of authorized banks on its official website. Objective use: money can be spent exclusively on products for children, including care, clothing, shoes, food, toys and textiles.
The Baby Package Program started in 2020 as a pilot project of social support for newborns. The physical set included essential items for the child: from clothing to care. The purpose of the initiative was to help parents in the first months after the baby is born. Since 2025, the format will become permanent, but instead of a physical set, parents will receive funds in special accounts. Flexibility: Parents will choose what products they need their child. Convenience: You do not need to get a physical package, it is enough to use a bank account. Expenditure control: Special account mode guarantees that money will be spent on its intended purpose.
The transition to a baby package is a step towards modernizing the social support system. The new format not only increases the flexibility of using assistance, but also makes it more accessible to different categories of parents.
