Hut Fund Postcards between 1914 and 1918 Restriction: Only managers can edit Note: At the outbreak of WW1, the YMCA was asked to provide recreation centres, known as huts. Within ten days, the YMCA had established 250 recreation huts in the United Kingdom and by 1918 over 300 YMCA centres had been established in France and Belgium, and more in the Commonwealth. At the huts, servicemen could buy cigarettes, coffee, cocoa, and cakes. The larger versions usually had a reading room for books and the latest newspapers and magazines. And all kinds of games. The YMCA also supplied notepaper, envelopes, and postcards for letters home. One way the YMCA raised money for these wartime activities, was to sell postcard images from the battle arena.
