Fundacja Ukraiński Dom

What Fundacja Ukraiński Dom does

Fundacja Ukraiński Dom is a Polish non-profit foundation headquartered in Warsaw, founded in 2004 (officially registered as Fundacja Nasz Wybór in 2009, renamed in 2022) and operating with a team of 44 staff. It serves Ukrainian refugees and other migrants in Poland through two physical hubs — the Centrum Wsparcia (Support Center at ul. Andersa 29) for legal, psychological, and social consultations, and the Centrum Spotkań (Meeting Center at ul. Zamenhofa 1) for cultural events, workshops, and a 3,000-title Ukrainian-language library. Service lines cover residence legalization, employment support, accommodation assistance, Polish language courses (A1–B1 plus Business and Medical Polish), psychological support, family assistance, and the dual-curriculum SzkoUA school for refugee children.

The foundation operates a community-led go-to-market: all services are free of charge to beneficiaries, delivered in person, by hotline (+48 727 805 764), or via online consultation booking. It does not develop proprietary technology and has no disclosed API, mobile application, or platform beyond the Portal Nasz Wybir information site and standard Google Forms intake.

Revenue is generated entirely from grants and donations, with no commercial pricing model. Key streams include EU funding under the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (FAMI), Polish government grants — most notably the Mazowieckie Mosty Międzykulturowe consortium project (105.5M PLN total, 2025–2029) led by Mazowieckie Centrum Polityki Społecznej — 1.5% tax allocations via its OPP (Organizacja Pożytku Publicznego) status, and individual donations via PayU, BLIK, and bank transfer. Since February 24, 2022 the foundation has delivered over 127,000 consultations, organized 163+ events under the Mazowsze project in 2023, and earned the 2024 CEB Award for Social Cohesion for SzkoUA.
