DOBRO KULTURY is one of the few non-governmental organizations dedicated to preservation of the cultural heritage in Poland and the first foundation of this profile in the border region. Our duty is to encourage residents of the Polish-German border area to become involved in the care of local cultural heritage, which leads to strengthening of interpersonal relationships and to the development of civil society.
The Founders of the Foundation of DOBRO KULTURY is a group of persons of Polish, German and Dutch nationality. This is evidence that supports the thesis that the protection of European cultural heritage knows no borders. However, the team directly involved in the daily affairs of the Foundation consists of Polish citizens. These are young people, who are however experienced in project work.
