Dear friend,

Thank you — truly, we repeat truly and sincerely — for supporting the Svet Peace Project.

Svet began in December 2023 with almost nothing: two students, a handful of books, and a hope that young people might sit together — even across countries at war — and discover something shared, human, and honest. We believed that peace begins in small rooms, around real conversation, long before it begins anywhere else.

Our college helped us with a modest summer internship stipend that covered basic living costs, but the work itself—the seminars, the outreach, the writing, the building—was entirely unpaid. For two years, until December 2025, we kept the project alive simply because we loved it and believed in what it could become.
The Projects for Peace grant that came later could only be used for program expenses, and we embraced that fully — using every dollar to run courses and pay teachers.

That is why your gift matters so deeply to us. It tells us that the light we’ve been carrying is seen by someone else too.

Your support now helps with the simple but essential things: books, materials, a printer that doesn’t jam, a room to sit in, and all the small administrative pieces that keep a young nonprofit breathing. It also supports the independent seminar programs we’re offering in the U.S. and helps us begin, for the first time, to compensate ourselves modestly going forward — so that Svet can slowly grow into sustainable work, rather than something we do only late at night after everything else.

Thank you again for stepping into this with us.

Help Young People Think Deeply & Build Peace

Thanks to a generous supporter, the next $10,000 donated will be matched — doubling your impact and helping keep our seminars free while we build toward our first full operating year. Our goal is $65,000 to sustain Svet from now through 2026–27.

Any donation helps, but monthly support gives us the stability we need to plan and grow.
