Foundation for Student Rights

The Foundation for Student Rights (Polish: Fundacja na rzecz Praw Ucznia) is a Polish non-profit organization dedicated to the protection and promotion of the rights of learners. According to its official website, the foundation works along three main lines: helping and intervening, educating about rights and obligations, and promoting changes in the law. On the assistance side, the foundation invites students to contact it at any time of day or night with questions about their rights. When necessary, it intervenes in individual cases by sending formal letters to the relevant authority demanding that the problem be resolved. This casework function positions the foundation as an advocacy body that students can turn to when they believe their rights are being violated. On the education side, the foundation runs lectures and talks, publishes books, and organizes an Olympiad of Knowledge about Student Rights (Olimpiada Wiedzy o Prawach Ucznia). The stated aim is to ensure that every learner knows both the rights they are entitled to and the obligations they must fulfill. On the law-reform side, the foundation prepares draft legislation, gives opinions on draft legal acts for the government or parliament, and sends petitions. One of its flagship proposals is a draft law known as "Psychologist in Every School" ("Psycholog w każdej szkole"), which reflects its ambition to shape education policy rather than only respond to individual complaints. The foundation also engages supporters through volunteering, a free browser plug-in called FaniMani that functions as a cashback mechanism directing a percentage of purchases to the organization, and financial donations. Its public identity is therefore that of a small, mission-driven civil-society organization operating in Poland's education sector, combining direct student support, public education, and legislative advocacy.

The Foundation for Student Rights (Fundacja na rzecz Praw Ucznia) is a Polish foundation. Publicly available evidence describes it as a Polish foundation but does not provide a founding date, founder names, or a detailed organizational chronology. What can be established from its official website is the scope of its current activity and the direction of its work. The foundation presents itself as an organization that students can contact at any time with questions about their rights, and that will intervene on their behalf when necessary by writing to the appropriate authority to demand a resolution. Alongside this casework, it conducts educational activities: lectures and talks, published books, and an Olympiad of Knowledge about Student Rights designed to spread awareness of both rights and obligations. A further strand of its work is law reform. The foundation prepares draft laws, issues opinions on draft legal acts for the government or parliament, and sends petitions, with the stated goal of preventing restrictions on the rights of learners. Its best-known legislative proposal, highlighted on its homepage, is the "Psychologist in Every School" ("Psycholog w każdej szkole") draft law. The foundation also solicits public support through volunteering, through a free FaniMani browser plug-in that works like cashback and directs a percentage of purchases to the organization, and through financial donations. Because the available evidence does not include dated milestones, this dossier does not assert specific years for its founding or for individual initiatives.
