What Hospicjum Pomorze Dzieciom does

Fundacja Hospicjum Pomorze Dzieciom is a Polish non-profit foundation (Organizacja Pożytku Publicznego / OPP) established in 2014 that delivers free, 24/7 home-based palliative care to terminally ill children and their families within a 100 km radius of Gdańsk. Its interdisciplinary care team — comprising doctors, nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists, pain-management specialists, and clergy — provides holistic biopsychosocial-spiritual support including medical treatment, symptom management, nursing care, loan of medical equipment, and bereavement counseling. The foundation operates two specialized sub-brands: Hospicjum Perinatalne Tulipani, a perinatal hospice supporting parents facing terminal fetal diagnoses, and eMOCja Holistyczne Centrum Wsparcia po Stracie, the only such holistic bereavement center in Poland, serving grieving families nationwide.

The organization runs a diversified, community-driven revenue model with no fees charged to patients. Income is generated through individual monthly donations (Zostań Aniołem program, suggested tiers 8–188 PLN/month), one-time donations via the pomagam.pomorzedzieciom.pl e-commerce storefront and BLIK mobile payments, the Polish 1.5% personal income tax donation mechanism (KRS 0000523966), partial reimbursement from the National Health Fund (NFZ), corporate sponsorships through the tiered Anielskie Firmy program (Silver Angel at 4,000 PLN/month, Gold Angel at 8,000+ PLN/month), and major annual fundraising events including Bieg Anioła and Morze Aniołów. The hospice also operates unique social-impact programs: Anioły Wolności (resocialization through death education in nine Polish prisons) and Medyk w obliczu śmierci (training medical professionals in end-of-life empathy). It is led by President Ewa Liegman and recognized with the Złoty Laur Jakości 2025 and Srebrny Laur Jakości 2024 from the Pomorska Nagroda Jakości competition.
