The whole team in Vilnius City Hall at the opening of the Ukrainian House (Ukrainos Namai)
Organization history
Ukraine House was founded in 2021. The founders are four like-minded and successful people with many victories and creative achievements. Confidence in their ability to create a strong organization with useful and interesting activities and bold projects has influenced the trust of partners and lovers of Ukrainian culture, history, and information. But much in the activities of the Ukrainian House changed with the onset of the rascist invasion. However, the values remained the same, which are reflected in the motorcycle organization: Honor and Truth.
mission and values of the organization
"The Ukrainian House is a cultural, informational, political and analytical center that should become a place for meetings, presentations and cooperation between Ukrainians, Lithuanians and representatives of other EU countries, for the implementation of useful projects, and for the development of cultural and social ties.
