The Nakło Foundation supports environmental protection, entrepreneurship and green industry thought leadership globally; and historical preservation, economic development, the hospitality industry, tourism, culture and other community building activities at the local level.
Our initiatives include:
Rebuilding Ukraine with Hemp: HempToday is supporting a multi-phase project centered near Morshyn, western Ukraine, to construct a sustainable 30‑unit apartment complex for displaced families, war veterans, and orphans using hempcrete — a locally developed, carbon-negative building material made from hemp hurd and binder. The broader initiative teaches hempcrete building skills to refugees onsite, employs locally sourced hemp hurd, and engages community organizations like GoFriends, the Ukrainian Hemp Building Association, and Nakło Foundation to drive production, training, and funding.
Historic Preservation: The foundation is custodial tenant, finances and directs an ongoing project that is restoring the Palace at Nakło, an 18th century estate in south-central Poland which is operated as a hospitality destination, and which serves as the headquarters of the Foundation’s other activities.
Sustainability: We are active participants in the global renaissance of industrial hemp through HempToday, our international family of information, communications and educational initiatives that help hemp stakeholders all over the world connect with each other and work together toward the common goal of a vibrant, well-functioning hemp industry – and all of the environmental promise it holds.
