ABOUT US
What we do
Since 2019, we have been engaging young people in activities related to Poland, we organize events which integrate the youth, we help students get into college and we give voice to the most talented young individuals.
The Polish Youth Association was established for cultural, social and educational purposes, consisting in supporting youth initiatives, organizing youth events and curating programs related to the popularization of Polish history, culture, language, tradition and heritage.
The inauguration of the Polish Youth Association took place at the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in New York, one of the most prestigious Polish diplomatic missions in the world, and the founder of the organization is Jakub Staniewski.
In 2021, we included the Polish Students Organization, which has been working for youth and students in the USA for 30 years. The activities of the Polish Youth Association focus on four programs:PSMConnect, PSMEngage, PSMExplore, and PSMAmplify.
The organization is headquartered in New York, but operates internationally. The goal of the organization is to create awareness of one's own value and the desire to improve one's personality to become a valuable part of the Polish community, as well as righteous citizens of the chosen country.
Strengthening the voice of young people by cooperating with organizations working for them and supporting youth participation in social life is our mission.
Scholarships for students
Studying abroad is often unimaginably expensive. That is why we run a database of scholarships for our members that will help you pay for your studies. The database of scholarships is updated on an ongoing basis, thanks to which pupils and students do not have to waste many hours looking for help in financing their studies. Over $120,000 scholarships from various Polish organizations have already appeared on our database.
