The Community That Impacts The Lives Of Polish Scholars

Marek Skulimowski - The Kosciuszko Foundation
May 30, 2021

Poland's history dates back to prehistoric times when Slavic tribes arrived on the territory and settled. It is a country that has had a turbulent history over the centuries. Poland has indeed known wars, foreign invasions, cultural repression, and massive migration overseas.

In fact, from 1795 to 1918, an independent Polish state was non-existen, however a strong Polish resistance movement operated. Opposition to foreign powers continued throughout the World Wars and more recently during communist rule. Polish patriots and heroes fervently fought for an independent future.

Remembrance of history has led the Polish population to unite. The Kosciuszko Foundation is one of the oldest organizations, created to support the Polish diaspora and represent its values, identity, and culture. For almost 100 years, the KF has been engaging important issues about Polonia to promote the Polish language and culture. All thanks to our loyal donors. Thank you for being a crucial part of our community that achieves results and impacts the lives of young scholars.
