Meet our team

The Pastoral Care for Families Foundation (PFCF) is a humanitarian and charitable organization based in Przemyśl, which runs a long-term accommodation center (OZZ) for people in need near the Polish-Ukrainian border.
The Foundation provides comprehensive support and care to people in the most difficult situations, particularly refugees (the elderly, the sick, the disabled, single mothers with small children).
Since 2022, we have been providing long- and short-term accommodation, meals, access to information, medical, spiritual, and psychological support, while promoting the social and economic integration of our residents.

Thanks to the homely atmosphere of community and mutual support, PFCF provides shelter and hope for regaining a sense of security, stability, and faith in a better future.
