We are an NGO with a mission to deliver humanitarian and integration aid both in Poland and abroad. Spontaneously created in the first days of the war in Ukraine by a group of alumni, scouts, and friends of the Nicolaus Copernicus High School in Lodz, Poland, the Copernicus Group has mobilized over 1,000 people to help those affected by the conflict – the internally displaced and refugees alike. The need to make a difference filled our lives and our hearts. Nothing has been the same ever since. 
The Foundation’s mission includes four areas:
Aid in Ukraine - We deliver food, personal hygiene products, and medical supplies directly to eastern Ukraine.
Material Aid - We facilitate social integration, help secure appropriate housing, offer employment assistance, and guarantee kids can continue education in Polish schools and kindergartens. We also provide legal and logistical support and ensure access to healthcare. 
Education - We run free Polish language classes for all age groups. Over 200 graduates successfully completed our introductory courses.
Evacuation and Rescue Efforts - To date, our Free Ukraine buses have evacuated over 5,000 vulnerable people, chiefly women and children, but also the elderly and persons with disabilities.
