Russian NGOs quickly adjusted their programs to virtual formats, engaging with beneficiaries and stakeholders online. However, reduced funding and financial strain became prevalent as donations decreased, prompting organizations to optimize operations and seek new sources of support. Amid the crisis, NGOs demonstrated their indispensable role in directly assisting vulnerable populations, delivering essential goods and medical supplies, and offering psychological and legal support. Mobilizing volunteers was crucial in extending the impact of NGO aid initiatives. The pandemic also allowed NGOs to influence policy changes and advocate for targeted support measures for vulnerable groups. Despite existing constraints, they actively shaped policies that addressed social inequalities exposed during the pandemic. In the future, the sector must address financial dependence on government funding and focus on developing sustainable, longterm solutions. The Russian non-profit sector can continue to address social challenges and promote societal change by building on the newfound culture of charity and civic engagementPandemija COVID-19 je pomenila velik izziv za neprofitni sektor, ki se je odzval trajnostno in prilagodljivo. Ruske nevladne organizacije so svoje programe hitro prilagodile virtualnim oblikam ter z upravičenci in zainteresiranimi stranmi sodelovale prek spleta. Vendar so zaradi zmanjšanja donacij prevladovali zmanjšano financiranje in finančni pritiski, kar je organizacije spodbudilo k optimizaciji delovanja in iskanju novih virov podpore. Med krizo so nevladne organizacije dokazale svojo nepogrešljivo vlogo pri zagotavljanju neposredne pomoči ranljivim skupinam prebivalstva, pri dostavi osnovnih dobrin in medicinskih pripomočkov ter nudenju psihološke in pravne podpore. Mobilizacija prostovoljcev je imela ključno vlogo pri povečanju učinka pobud NVO za pomoč. Pandemija je nevladnim organizacijam ponudila tudi priložnosti za vplivanje na spremembe politike in zagovarjanje ciljno usmerjenih podpornih ukrepov za ranljive skupine. Kljub obstoječim omejitvam so imele aktivno vlogo pri oblikovanju politik, ki so obravnavale družbene neenakosti, razkrite med pandemijo. V prihodnosti mora sektor odpraviti finančno odvisnost od vladnega financiranja in se osredotočiti na razvoj trajnostnih in dolgoročnih rešitev. Ruski neprofitni sektor lahko na podlagi novo odkrite kulture dobrodelnosti in državljanskega udejstvovanja še naprej obravnava družbene izzive in spodbuja spremembe v družbiTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInstitutum Studiorum Humanitatis - Fakulteta za podiplomski humanistični študij
