Hungarian Interchurch Aid’s Support Centre Opens its Doors for Ukrainian Refugees

While providing tangible support by distributing food, hygiene items, clothing and childcare products, primary aim of the centre will be to provide long-term assistance to those planning their future in Hungary with all kinds of services needed to adjust to life in the country. Giving a helping hand to refugees trying to access education, healthcare, labour market, vocational trainings and language learning programmes, HIA staff will pay special attention to the needs of unaccompanied minors, people with disabilities and the elderly. Believing in the power of community, Hungarian Interchurch Aid will also organise recreational, educational, community outreach and community building programmes, with a focus on social inclusion and talent development.

The establishment of this unique centre was the result of a broad collaboration of international and domestic actors – with the crucial contribution of the Taipei Representative Office, who have made an outstanding donation of $1.5 million.
