The Piast Institute’s lifeblood is the support of the Polish American community. This support comes in spirit, action and, just as important, financial contributions.

We know you receive a plethora of requests for financial support every day, but we hope you realize this one is different. It comes from an organization that seeks to preserve and advance the life and culture of our people, in honor of our forefathers and in legacy to our children. Indeed, we are “Building a New Polonia for the 21^st Century.”

We ask that you give what you feel appropriate. You can donate via mail by check made out to Piast Institute or by credit card by pressing on the button below.

Piast has established four benefactor categories named in honor of Poles we strive to emulate. Members of these categories receive commemorative Piast Institute memorabilia in honor of their much valued support. Bog Zaplac.

Your donations are tax-deductible.

Lifetime Benefactor Categories

	Piast Circle ($5,000+) Named for the legendary founder of the Polish state, the Piast Circle celebrates those benefactors that donate $5,000 or more to the Institute. Pictured is the Piast Dynasty’s coat of arms, which established the crowned white eagle as the official symbol of Poland.
	Saint Queen Jadwiga Circle ($1,000+) The niece of the last Piast King of Poland, Jadwiga is venerated for her intelligence, good works and patronage of learning. Her decision to marry Jagiello united the peoples of East Central Europe and spread Polish culture and Christianity in the region. Piast has chosen St. Jadwiga as our Patron.
