Homelessness remains a major social issue in Poland. Tens of thousands of people living on the streets experience social exclusion. At Good Factory, we believe that every person, regardless of their past, has the inalienable right to dignity and respect.

Overview:
  • there are more than 30,000 homeless people in Poland. 84% of them are men.
  • most of them live in the Mazowieckie, Śląskie and Pomorskie voivodeships
  • every year, more than 100 people in Poland die due to cold-related causes
  • the most common reasons for homelessness are: familial conflict, addiction issues, and eviction

In the winter of 2023, we handed out

251

care packages with sleeping bags, coats and shoes to the homeless

A year ago, we made the decision that good is priceless and not subject to discounting, neither in our charity Shop nor in the good deeds marketplace GoodWorks 24/7. Before the Black Friday frenzy itself, as if out of spite, we spread the slogan “I help without discounts”. We wanted to send out a clear message – there will be no discounts with us from now on ? .

But it’s not just a cute marketing slogan, it’s our philosophy.

When you buy from our shop or GoodWorks 24/7, you have the confidence that your money is going where it will be worthwhile. Not for us, not for the foundation, but for those in need. You cannot discount a therapeutic meal, from which every penny goes where it should – to the Democratic Republic of Congo. We cannot tell the young women in Senegal, who work hard to complete their education and sew beautiful bags for you after school, that we will only provide 75% of their school fees from now on. The good cannot be discounted.

If you are preparing for Christmas, we strongly encourage you to make purchases that you will not regret. In the Good Factory shop, we’ve prepared unique gift boxes for you (great if you’re struggling to choose a present!), and on GoodWorks 24/7 you’ll find Vouchers for Good, which give you plenty of opportunities to do something good.

Be sure to let us know – do you help without discounts?

We need to dry out the buildings as quickly as possible

Urgent help for flood victims

The most vulnerable are the elderly and disabled, living in remote rural areas and small towns, where reaching them is difficult. You’ll be informed about every penny spent to help them. 100% of the funds raised will go directly towards targeted, precise aid tailored to the needs of those affected.
