About the Consortium

Seeking to expand the scope of assistance and to provide support more effectively and on a larger scale, Omenaa Mensah and Rafał Brzoska established the Philanthropic Consortium in 2023.
The Consortium’s overarching goal is to connect and strengthen the efforts of foundations and initiatives dedicated to addressing social challenges. This unique non-profit initiative and grant program, unparalleled in Europe, was launched alongside the activities of the continent’s largest charity auction – the TOP CHARITY Auction, bringing together socially engaged philanthropists.
Thanks to business leaders bidding for exceptional works of art and unique experiences, the Consortium supports both Polish and international projects that deliver tangible impact to local communities.
Its global reach has enabled collaboration not only within Poland but also abroad, including partnerships with the Obama Foundation and Médecins Sans Frontières.
The Council of the Philanthropic Consortium comprises: Sylwia Dobrzycka, its Chair, Omenaa Mensah, the founder and President of the Omenaa Foundation, as well as distinguished representatives of Polish business and philanthropy.
In line with the adopted principles of operation, grant applications are to be endorsed by TCA participants who either run their own foundations or are otherwise actively engaged in charitable activities.
