About us

The foundation was created by a group of involved Belarusian activists who strive

to improve the lives of emigrants in Poland. The war and political repressions forced many people

to leave their country and caused many difficulties the refugees meet daily.


To help migrants get used to their new life, we have developed several educational programs

– free online course “Polaris. Leader of Civic Initiatives” and “Women's Leadership”.

We launched a free shelter for families with children from Ukraine

who were fleeing the war.


Since March, more than 30 women with children have been able to stay in the shelter.
In August 2022, the foundation organized a women's club in Warsaw "Women PRO"
with advantageous advisers and experts’ meetings in various fields being held every week.

The first project of the foundation was an educational course for leaders of democratic changes in Belarus that was launched due to Solidarity Fund PL support.

The next program was the "Women's Leadership" course, implemented with the help of the German Marshall Fund.

From the very beginning of the Russian war against Ukraine we claimed our solidarity with Ukrainian people as victims of this brutal aggression. April 2022 was the starting point for a charitable shelter for mothers with children from Ukraine who had nowhere to go when coming to Poland. We are very grateful to the Belarusian diaspora in Italy and their partner – Comunità Progetto Sud for the opportunity to provide this kind of help here in Warsaw.

In August 2022, the “Women PRO” club was successfully established thanks to the Embassy of Canada to Poland.
