Who can establish an organization?
The requirements for establishing a foundation are different from those for establishing an association.
The founder of a foundation can be any adult citizen, not necessarily of Poland as well as a legal entity, that is, for example, a company or a university. In order to establish a foundation, it is necessary to allocate assets for this purpose, but the regulations do not specify the amount. To establish a foundation, one person is sufficient (although there may also be multiple founders).
To establish an association, at least 7 natural persons of Polish citizenship or foreigners living in Poland are required. Legal entities can only be supporting members of an association.
