Come and meet the Hlavák initiative, which has long been doing a meritorious and important job at Prague's main railway station. Help with integration, interpretation, material help, all volunteers from their ranks can handle it. Today, they mostly help refugees from Ukraine, but they also have experience with people from all over the Arab world. Love of neighbor certainly knows no boundaries and is no stranger to them; on the contrary, they say: “We don't care about color, religion, gender - we care about people. If anyone needs help, we're here - at Central Station. Refugees, welcome! ”
