About Foundation

Mission of the Foundation

The Rafał Brzoska Foundation was established in 2022 to support talented Polish youth in obtaining the highest level of education. Equipped with knowledge and unique cultural exchange experiences at leading universities in Poland and around the world, our scholarship recipients eventually become foundation alumni. In this way, they can support future generations, and the knowledge and experience they have gained return to Poland.

I am deeply convinced that Poland’s greatest asset is its human capital – ambitious, talented, and hardworking young people who, with the right support, can compete with the best in the world. I believe that investing in their development is not only an opportunity for them individually, but also a foundation for building Poland’s strong position as a regional leader and one of the world’s most important economies.

That is why it is so important to me to create an environment in which the most talented individuals can fully develop their abilities, pursue their aspirations, and boldly reach for more. In all my activities, I am constantly accompanied by Omenaa Mensah – my inspiration, partner, and wife. It is thanks to her sensitivity and commitment that our joint projects have not only scale, but above all meaning and real impact.

Rafal Brzoska

Founder

Rafał Brzoska is an entrepreneur, founder, and CEO of the Integer.pl Capital Group. For over a decade, he has been developing the InPost brand, which has become a leader in logistics services, reaching millions of households not only in Poland but also across many European markets.

His success is today a source of great joy and personal fulfillment. At the same time, he clearly remembers the path he took to get where he is now. He comes from a small town, and his curiosity about the world and people motivated him to continually push beyond new boundaries. Perseverance and hard work enabled him to achieve his current position.

With people who share the same determination in mind, he established a fund supporting young talent. He believes that true fulfillment comes from sharing one’s success with others. That is why he created a foundation whose mission is to unlock the potential of young, talented individuals and provide them with access to borderless education and development opportunities. He emphasizes that the best investment is investment in people — which is why, since 2022, over 20 million PLN has been allocated to this purpose, enabling support for 99 scholarship recipients so far.

Anthem of the Foundation

We are proud to present the music video for the song "Bridges", a joint work of the Rafal Brzoska Foundation Scholars: Nina Anto, Hanna Derea, Aga Płaczek, Malgorzata Bobinska, Natalia Dragan, Zoya Gizy, Pola Hayder, Kasia Palowska and Paulina Pietras.

"Bridges" has become the symbolic anthem of our Foundation - a story about connecting worlds, responsibility and intergenerational cooperation.

The song was composed by the Scholars and premiered at the 3rd annual meeting of Rafal Brzoska Foundation Scholars in January 2025.

The music video for it, recorded in 3 studios, on 2 continents, first saw the light of day at the 4th Annual Meeting of Scholars in December 2025. The song can also be listened to on streaming platforms and viewed on our YouTube channel.
