Money for ideas: Rosmolodezh is distributing grants for project implementation
Who can apply and how much is given
Microgrants are targeted payments for the implementation of one's own idea that benefits society. The maximum amount of support is 300,000 rubles. Funds are allocated through the state information system "Youth of Russia," where applicants upload their projects.
Young people aged 14 to 35 inclusive can participate. Each participant is entitled to submit only one application containing one project. The range of directions is broad: from the improvement of small territories and volunteering to youth tourism, science, and inclusion. There are a total of 18 thematic nominations in the competition.
Deadline: July 16, 2026
The application submission ends on July 16, 2026, exactly at 12:00 Moscow time. Experts advise not to postpone filling out documents until the last day — the system may not cope with the load, and errors in the application may lead to rejection.
How grant activity is growing in the regions
Analysts assessing the effectiveness of the program note a steady increase in the number of supported projects in Russian regions. The example of Karelia is particularly indicative. Over two years, the republic has demonstrated impressive dynamics, reports karelinform.ru.
In 2024, with nearly five thousand applications across the country, 229 projects became winners. From Karelia, three initiatives were approved for a total amount of just over 272,000 rubles. By 2025, the result multiplied: five projects received grants, and the total funding exceeded 1.4 million rubles.
Among the winning projects from Karelia are ideas in the fields of culture, sports, historical education, youth tourism, and inclusive events for people with disabilities.
Expert advice: how to increase your chances of winning
The organizers of the competition and representatives of grant operators advise future participants to clearly articulate the social significance of the project — for whom it is needed and how it will change people's lives.
Stick to the declared budget, avoiding inflated or unjustified expenses. It’s also good to study successful applications from previous years, which are available in the "Youth of Russia" system. Additionally, do not try to cover everything at once — it is better to work thoroughly on one specific result.
Microgrants are a real chance for young people aged 14 to 35 to receive up to 300,000 rubles for their socially beneficial idea. Applications are accepted until July 16 through the "Youth of Russia" system. The number of supported projects and the volume of funding grow year by year. The main thing is to believe in your idea and present it correctly.
