The jury has chosen three more winners of the «Talents for Ukraine» grant program from the KSE Foundation! Among them: the owner of the confectionery «Nomer Domu», the founder of the inclusive bakery «Good bread from good people» and a modeler of military-historical miniature.
Mariia Tymoshenko is the owner of the confectionery «Nomer Domu» and a volunteer. Our winner has been producing fudge and author’s chocolate for eight years.

Today, the winner is developing a new line of production – she creates marmalades and jams.
