PSFCU Scholarship Recipients Visit President of Poland

This was the second time that ten scholarship recipients from our Credit Union went on a 10-day study trip to Poland. The program included meetings with such notables as Polish President Andrzej Duda.

“It is very important that young people from all over the world come to Poland, above all from the United States, Poland’s great ally,” said President Duda during a meeting in the Presidential Palace with American college students participating in the second edition of the Presidential Internship organized by the PSFCU and General Electric Poland. President Duda gave the students commemorative certificates, expressing his satisfaction that the Presidential Palace was able for a second time to host the students with Polish roots, as well as those without a Polish background but still interested in Poland (the ten were chosen by GE Poland).

“I am glad that you have seen companies operating in Poland and that you are visiting our major public institutions. I am also happy that you are visiting the most beautiful Polish cities: today you are in Warsaw, but I know that you have already been in Krakow and Wroclaw,” said President Duda.

The purpose of the Presidential Internship Program is to enable American students to gain professional experience through study visits to leading government-owned and international private companies in Poland. Participants have the opportunity to meet representatives of national institutions, including the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland, the Senate, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Development and Investment. For two years, the internship has been an integral part of the PSFCU Scholarship Program: each year, ten young and gifted members of our Credit Union are able to qualify for it.
