Last year, Intent's team also became the vice-champion of the Odesa Cup in the game "What? Where? When?", which took place on May 26. Also then, thanks to the team's fees, they managed to accumulate UAH 165 thousand, which was donated to the Monster Corporation charity fund to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In February, the deputies supported changes to the Safe City of Odesa city program, which provides for an additional increase in funds for the needs of the military. Last year, UAH 1.4 billion were allocated for defense needs, which were distributed among five main programs, including Safe City Odesa and Support for the TRO forces. This year, UAH 126 million was planned for defense, but after an additional vote by the deputies, the defense budget increased by UAH 211 million, making a total of UAH 337 million to support the city's defense capability.

City council members also appealed to the head of the Odesa Regional Military Administration, Oleh Kiper, to exclude the region from the waste management program.
