The “Ya-Mariupol” aid center and the “Medychna Zirka” network of clinics work together to help displaced people
On July 16, the YaMariupol aid center opened in the city of Leva. This is already the 10th center in Ukraine that provides assistance to refugees from Mariupol and its surroundings.
Unfortunately, the people of Mariupol are now moving all over the country, so the opening of the aid center in Lviv, where there is the largest concentration of displaced people, was the most expected. The event was attended by the mayors of Mariupol and Lviv – Vadim Boychenko and Andriy Sadovy. Each of them made a great contribution to protect the vulnerable part of the population.
The cooperation between YaMariupol and Medychna Zirka began with the opening of both centers in Vinnytsia, where already within 2 months many displaced people have been applying for various help in one place.
Therefore, a decision was made to sign a memorandum between Vadym Boychenko and Kateryna Vaidych (Director of Medychna Zirka) on collaboration to make it more effective and long-lasting.
At “Ya-Mariupol” (Lviv) they provide comprehensive assistance:
• legal
• informative
• humanitarian
• psychological
• medical
• the center has a children’s room where Methodist educators work with children.
The address of the “I-Mariupol” Center is 15 Halytska Ploshcha. The working hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., the day off is Sunday.
