What Funacja Małgosi Braunek "Bądź" does

Fundacja Małgosi Braunek "Bądź" (Fundacja Bądź, Be Foundation; KRS: 0000381339) is a Polish non-profit foundation established in 2015 in Warsaw, operating with a 6-person team. The Foundation promotes integrative and holistic medicine that complements conventional Western medical care, structured around Body–Mind–Spirit pillars, and serves primarily individuals affected by cancer and chronic diseases, their families and caregivers, healthcare professionals, and increasingly corporate clients seeking employee wellness programming. Its portfolio of programs includes the annual Integrative Medicine Congress (5 editions 2018–2024 at venues including POLIN Museum and Legia Stadium), twice-monthly free educational workshops since 2018, residential workshops in Kazimierz Dolny, the Poco a Poco personalized breathing and meditation practice (facilitated by Alchemy of Breath-trained practitioners), the Living Body bodywork method, Somatic Experiencing trauma regulation sessions, the BądźMy support group, a free psychological consultation helpline, and the 'Zdrowie Dla' (Health For) program with local government partners and Warsaw Genomics. Since February 2022 the Foundation has additionally run a humanitarian aid program sending medical supplies to Ukrainian hospitals.

The underlying platform is a knowledge-and-practice aggregation model rather than a software product: the Kompendium Wiedzy (Knowledge Hub) consolidates articles, podcasts, video recordings, and specialist recommendations across traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, psychotherapy, ecotherapy, and other integrative disciplines. The Foundation's proprietary methods are facilitator-led rather than technology-automated, with credentialing anchored in certifications such as Alchemy of Breath facilitator training and the Five Wisdom Institute lineage through Małgosia Braunek. Content distribution spans the Foundation's website, a YouTube channel (@fundacjabadz), Facebook and Instagram (@fundacjabadz / @fundacja_badz), two podcast series ('Jestem i Będę' and 'Osobiste Rozmowy Holistyczne') on Spotify and YouTube, and email newsletters.

Revenue mechanics are diversified across donation channels (Siepomaga.pl fundraising, Patronite recurring patronage, direct bank transfer, and Polish 1.5% income-tax allocation via KRS 0000381339), tiered residential workshop fees (1,800–2,500 PLN across five accommodation tiers at Dom na Skarpie in Kazimierz Dolny), Congress ticket sales and corporate sponsorship packages (logo placement, participant folders of ~500 items, speaking slots), and bespoke corporate wellness training sold via PDF proposal. Operational scale is modest: approximately 20 educational campaigns per year, ~80 participants per event, ~2,000 social-media views per action, ~500 Congress participant folders distributed, and 6 humanitarian shipments to Ukraine since 2022.
