The Świetlica Community Center in Krakow has become a real home for Ukrainian refugees who found themselves in another country in such a difficult time. Here we received warmth and coziness, moral support, new knowledge of foreign languages and help from friendly Poles. We would like to thank all organizers and sponsors for their support and help.

Our Community Center is a place you want to come back to many times. It's impossible to put into words what a bright, good atmosphere there is. We would like to thank (…) our sponsors, our wonderful girls, who created and maintain this atmosphere. It is especially important to us now to have a place where you can come and feel at home. Thank you again to everyone involved. You are great!
VOLUNTEERS
Olga Gulla-Kowalik

I joined the Foundation as one of the first volunteers a few moments after the outbreak of the war in Ukraine. Together with volunteer Dominika, we created the Career Section within the Foundation, whose task was to help people from Ukraine find a job in Poland. In addition to writing dozens of CVs, I also took part in many Foundation events and, above all, I met wonderful people! The Foundation is a place to which I always willingly return and whose calm, warm and good atmosphere helped me a lot in more difficult moments in my life. I'm glad we exist 💚

I believe that by organizing social and aid campaigns and involving the local community, closer and further neighbors, we raise our children and teach the young generation empathy and respect for other people. We show that everyone is important and we should be sensitive to the needs of each individual. This is what a group of strangers from the neighborhood did in February 2022, when Russia's invasion of Ukraine began, this is how the Kocham Dębniki Foundation works.
NEIGHBORS

A good local community is the best environment for helping and creating social support. The Kocham Dębniki Foundation has created such a place for people from Ukraine, in our neighborhood, full of warmth and openness.
