TVN Foundation

The TVN Foundation was launched in 2001 by TVN which is the leading broadcaster in Poland owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. The Foundation’s goal is to provide assistance to patients, medical, educational, care facilities, and hospitals, as well as helping the poor and institutions of great social importance, which have found themselves in need of funding. Since the beginning of its charitable activity, the TVN Foundation has provided help to nearly 30,000 people, many hospitals and other health-related institutions. The Foundation finances treatment and rehabilitation of sick children, as well as supports seniors by purchasing medication not covered by their insurance. The TVN Foundation not only renovates and builds medical facilities (hospitals, clinics and, hospital wards), but also finances the purchase of medical equipment. In 2021 the TVN Foundation, due to a huge underinvestment of child psychiatry in Poland, began to build the Psychiatry Center for Children and Youth within the largest children’s hospital in Poland: the Children's Memorial Health Institute in Warsaw. The construction is planned to be finished by the end of 2023. The total amount of money needed for this investment is over 7 Million USD.

Moja Fundacja

We often hear the statement that helping others in the blood, that there is no impossible for us ... There is probably something to it, because if we decide something, there is no option to give up it. Who do we help? Due to the fact that we focus all our attention on children, adolescents and the elderly, so you can meet us most often in orphanages, care facilities or quiet old age homes. We reach people who want to change something in their lives, but need support - our joint support - to achieve this. We open a new world in front of them, in which they develop their talents, passions, interests, and meet new people.

We run five support groups for: youth, transgender people, families of LGBT+ people, bisexual people, and LGBT+ people from Ukraine.

We organize many cultural activities: produce concerts, theatre plays, and organize meetings with authors.
