Welcome to
Poland Telugu Association (PoTA)
Poland Telugu Association (PoTA)
Our community is important to us, and we strive to make the most of it.
Our community is at the heart of everything we do, and I am honored to lead an initiative that fosters unity, culture, and support among Telugu people in Poland. Poland Telugu Association (PoTA) is a distinguished non-profit organization uniting individuals of Telugu heritage in Poland. Established in March 2023, PoTA holds the honor of being the first officially registered Telugu (Indian) association in the country.
PoTA serves as a vibrant platform for cultural exchange, fostering connections, preserving traditions, and building a strong sense of belonging among Telugu people residing in Poland. Beyond cultural engagement, PoTA also stands as a pillar of support during emergencies and challenging times, offering assistance and resources to community members in need.
As we continue our journey, I encourage each of you to actively participate, contribute, and take pride in our heritage. Together, we can create a lasting impact and strengthen our Telugu identity in Poland. I look forward to your support and collaboration in making PoTA a thriving and united community.

Founder & President
Poland Telugu Association (PoTA)
In our commitment to the community, we endeavour to amplify its importance and foster a thriving environment.
The journey of Poland Telugu Association (PoTA) began with a simple yet powerful vision – to unite Telugu people in Poland, celebrate our rich heritage, and create a strong, supportive community away from home. As someone who deeply values Telugu culture and traditions, I felt the need for a dedicated platform that would bring our people together, not just for cultural celebrations but also to support one another in times of need.
Since its inception in March 2023, PoTA has grown into a vibrant association that fosters cultural exchange, strengthens community bonds, and provides assistance during challenges. Whether through organizing festivals, educational programs, or offering help in times of crisis, our mission remains the same – to serve, support, and uplift our Telugu community in Poland.
This association is not just an organization; it is a family built on shared values and mutual support. I invite each of you to be an active part of PoTA, contribute your ideas, and help us shape a brighter future for our community. Together, we can create a lasting legacy for generations to come.

PoTA Seva
We are proud to present PoTA Seva, a new initiative of the Poland Telugu Association (PoTA), founded on the values of compassion, service, and social responsibility.
This is not just an act of charity — it’s a collective responsibility and a reflection of our deepest values: gratitude, unity, and humanity. Through PoTA Seva, we are committed to giving back to the Polish community and honouring the nation that has so warmly welcomed us.
Initiative One: Feeding with Purpose
NO ONE SHOULD GO HUNGRY!
As our first initiative, PoTA Seva has joined hands with the Warsaw Seva team, which has been conducting weekly food donation camps at the Palace of Culture and Science — the heart of Warsaw — since 2017. This partnership marks a significant step in PoTA’s ongoing dedication to community service and solidarity.
A Tradition of Giving – Now Stronger Together
On the second Sunday of every month, PoTA Seva volunteers, alongside the Warsaw Seva team, serve delicious, nutritious meals at this iconic location.
To make a meaningful impact, PoTA proudly covers all expenses for the food camp on that day, offering a heartfelt contribution from the Telugu community to the people of Poland.
Join Us in This Noble Cause
Every meal served is a message of care. Every smile is a reminder of our shared humanity.
We welcome volunteers, donors, and well-wishers to join us in this mission — because NO ONE SHOULD GO HUNGRY!
