What Fundacja "Wrocławskie Hospicjum dla Dzieci" does

Fundacja "Wrocławskie Hospicjum dla Dzieci" is a registered Polish non-profit foundation (KRS 0000287982), founded in 2007 and headquartered at ul. Sołysowicka 58, Wrocław, that provides pediatric palliative and respite care for terminally, chronically, and incurably ill children and young adults (up to age 35) in the Lower Silesia region. The foundation operates four core service lines: a home hospice (Hospicjum domowe), a perinatal hospice (Hospicjum perinatalne), residential respite care at Dom Opieki Wytchnieniowej "Kokoszka" (opened October 2023), and daytime respite care at Dzienny Dom Opieki Wytchnieniowej "Piórko" (opened July 2025), plus a further respite facility in Żmigród. Supporting services include lending of medical equipment (e.g., anti-decubitus mattresses, oxygen concentrators), a Psychological-Therapeutic Workshop, and access to specialist clinics, all delivered by a multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists, and social workers together with 80+ action volunteers.

Operationally, the foundation runs a community-led, event-driven go-to-market: services are provided free of charge to families, and the operating model blends in-home visits with stationary facilities. Revenue is composed of five streams: individual donations and bequests (including one-time gifts via PayU and Zrzutka.pl), the Polish 1.5% personal income tax designation by taxpayers, EU and government grants (notably the PLN 4.36M Carpe Spiritum project under Fundusze Europejskie dla Dolnego Śląska 2021-2027 and PFRON co-financing), revenue from charitable events (concerts, book drives, recycling campaigns, lotteries), and corporate partnerships (e.g., Rotary Club Wrocław, Magnolia Park, Infor Polska, WOŚP, MPWiK Wrocław). Marketing channels are community-driven across a website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, school engagements, and a dense network of charity events. The foundation currently serves approximately 78-80 children under hospice care and engages over 100 educational institutions across Lower Silesia.
