Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Partners and Friends of Krzyżowa Foundation!
The coronavirus pandemic has brought with it a real threat to the existence of our Foundation. With the "freezing" of activities and the cancellation of almost all projects to be carried out in Krzyżowa in the first half of 2020, the Foundation was cut off a significant part of its incomes. We faced the perspective of dismissal of employees and even bankruptcy. To avoid the worst, we decided to take all possible measures: we reduced the salaries of the entire team, took advantage of the anti-crisis shield provided by the Polish government, reformulated some of the projects in order to implement them online, appealed to our partners and friends for help and asked for extraordinary support from the governments of Poland and Germany, whose political and financial support enabled the creation of the International Youth Meeting Centre 30 years ago.

Ladies and gentlemen, Dear Friends,
With real pleasure - after such a long time - we can invite you back again to Krzyżowa. Not all areas of our activity are yet possible, but slowly, with all restrictions and safety rules - we are opening for you.
The pandemic, which hit all areas of economic and social life with all its force, did not spare the most important institutions and organisations working to promote German-Polish cooperation. Dr. Robert Żurek, Managing Director of the Foundation, talked at Radio COSMO about how this difficult reality affects the functioning of the Krzyżowa Foundation.
We recommend the Podcast Czas na współpracę 2.0 (in Polish).
