Three UHI Humanitarian Hubs Running at Once — Brovary, Troieshchyna and Holosievo

Since opening our first hub in Brovary on January 20th, we haven't stopped. Today UHI is running three Humanitarian Hubs at the same time — in Brovary, Troieshchyna, and the Holosiivskyi district of Kyiv.

Where we are right now:

• Brovary — 253 Kyivska St (near Epicenter K) — 9:00 AM–7:00 PM (open since January 20 — our first and longest-running hub)

• Kyiv, Troieshchyna — 31 Chervonoi Kalyny Ave (Florence Cinema) — open 24/7 (since January 30)

• Kyiv, Holosievo — 6 Heroiv Mariupolia St (VDNH area) — 9:00 AM–7:00 PM (opened February 11)

Every Humanitarian Hub offers:

• A warm zone to heat up

• Free hot drinks

• Charging stations for phones and devices

• Fast, reliable Wi-Fi

• A first aid kit

• A dedicated kids' zone with games and creative activities

Brovary up close — through Dobrobat's eyes

Our partners at Dobrobat recently filmed a video report from the Brovary hub. Their host walked through the space, talked to kids and volunteers, and tested the internet speed: 200 Mbps. "I'm shocked," he said on camera.

UHI volunteer Vira puts it simply: "The families who come to us genuinely can't afford anything right now — no electricity, nowhere to get warm, nowhere to charge their phones. Kids come straight from school. They just want a moment to rest — emotionally and physically."

Vadim, 11, came after school. He heard about the hub from a local Telegram channel: "At home the voltage is 150 volts — everything flickers. Here there's Wi-Fi and games. The most important thing is that we get our electricity back — and that victory comes as soon as possible."

Next to our tent in Brovary, the "Yizha bez Kordonu" food truck is serving hot meals — through the joint efforts of our partners, over 35,000 hot meals have already been handed out to everyone in need.
