On Sunday, August 9, 2026, the Polonia Foundation of Ohio proudly celebrated its 65th Annual Heritage Award & Scholarship Dinner at the beautiful Woodside Event Center at St. Michael’s in Broadview Heights, Ohio. For more than six decades, this cherished tradition has brought together members of Northeast Ohio’s Polish-American community to celebrate our shared heritage, recognize individuals whose dedication and accomplishments strengthen Polonia, and support the next generation through the Foundation’s scholarship program. This year’s banquet continued that proud legacy in a new setting, bringing generations of Polonia together for an afternoon of recognition, fellowship, and celebration of the Polish heritage that remains at the heart of the Foundation’s mission.
