What Community Foundation of the City of Dubno "Dobrobut" does

The Community Foundation of the City of Dubno "Dobrobut" is a Ukrainian charitable organization founded in fall 2019 and headquartered at Mytropolyta Sheptytskoho Street 1a in Dubno, Rivne region, Ukraine (EDRPOU 43278498). It operates as a community foundation — a local grant-making and service-delivery vehicle — engaging Dubno city and district residents, internally displaced persons (IDPs), youth, and vulnerable populations in civic, humanitarian, and capacity-building programs. The foundation runs a portfolio of community programs including the School of Active Citizens, the Youth Leadership School, social project micro-grants, IDP integration and humanitarian assistance, and psychological support services for war-affected groups. Its underlying "technology" consists of a WordPress-based public website (dubnodobrobut.com) integrated with payment processors (LiqPay, PrivatBank, WayForPay, Apple Pay, Google Pay) for one-time and recurring donations, plus standard communication channels (email newsletter, Facebook, in-person events) — there is no proprietary software, data platform, or AI component.

The foundation's business model is a non-profit, donor-funded operating model. It generates income from two streams: (1) charitable donations from private individuals (one-time and recurring subscriptions at preset tiers of 50/100/200/500 UAH or custom amounts), and (2) institutional grant funding from international donors and intermediaries. In 2023, 100% of reported income (1,947,948.84 UAH, ~$52K USD) came from grants — primarily Global Fund for Community Foundations (731,372 UAH), ISAR Ednannia (563,280 UAH), Hungarian Interchurch Aid (350,000 UAH), and National Network for Local Philanthropy Development / Global Giving (271,930 UAH). Individual donor contributions have historically been a smaller slice of income (62,885.68 UAH in 2022 from 18 individual donors, including 7 foreigners). The organization has no commercial revenue, no equity, and is governed by a supervisory board of three members; a core team of six (including two co-founders) executes programs with support from volunteers and partner organizations.

Strategic positioning is as a hyper-local community foundation with an unusually international funding footprint: it serves a single municipality but draws grants from US, Polish, Hungarian, and global civil-society funders (ISAR Ednannia, USAID, Global Fund for Community Foundations, Hungarian Interchurch Aid, Peace Corps volunteers network, Global Giving, Foundation of the Brothers Cyril and Methodius in Jarosław, Rotary Club Dubno, Caritas-Dubno, and the Ukrainian Association of Cities). Since Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, the foundation has pivoted materially toward IDP support, psychological assistance, and humanitarian aid, while retaining its original civic-engagement mandate. Revenue scaled roughly 10x from 2020 (192,029.60 UAH) to 2023 (1,947,948.84 UAH), reflecting grant-cycle expansion rather than earned-income growth.
