The priority is to secure the operational and administrative stability of KIK. While the association secures numerous grants for programme purposes, it has limited funding for its core running costs.
Capital Goal: PLN 10 million.
Campaign Duration: 2026–2028.
Estimated Annual Net Return: PLN 500,000.
The annual net yield is primarily allocated to:
- financing KIK’s current core activities (approx. 92%);
- fund management and administrative costs (approx. 8%).
KIK Endowment Fund
The Endowment Fund of the Club of Catholic Intelligentsia operating as the KIK Endowment Fund, is an investment in the long-term development of the association, its independence, and the strengthening of its social impact.
We strive to think boldly and wisely about the future of KIK. The Endowment Fund is a bold and wise investment in independence - and independence is the key to acting in accordance with our values.
- Jakub Kiersnowski, President of KIK
KIK ENDOWMENT FUND CAMPAIGN 2026–2028
The KIK Endowment Fund Campaign 2026–2028 is a three-year, jubilee fundraising initiative. Its goal is to build an endowment fund that ensures long-term stability and financial independence for the Club of Catholic Intelligentsia. The campaign will be carried out in stages: from a "quiet phase," focused on the community around KIK , to a "public phase"- promoted more widely. The initiative is based on the engagement of both key donors and the wider community of the association, combining one-off donations with commitments to regular annual and monthly support.

NAMED FUNDS
Named funds are a special form of engagement for strategic donors who wish to permanently link their family’s philanthropic tradition with KIK’s mission. This option is available for donations of at least PLN 250,000.
Each named fund carries the donor’s surname, or the name of a person they choose to honour (including the possibility of dedicating the fund to a loved one). A named fund:
- includes a dedicated webpage;
- presents the founder’s story and motivation, or a biography of the person honoured;
- indicates a specific area of support.
Donors of named funds are included in KIK’s annual list of supporters, even after the end of the Endowment Fund campaign.

- Marcin Żółtek, Treasurer of KIK
