Presently Polish Assistance is focused on the New York metropolitan area. Direct assistance to those in need is given on a monthly basis, usually to supplement low social security payments or to cover extraordinary medical bills.

Polish Assistance is housed in a limestone neo-Renaissance three-story mansion built in 1917. which is owned and occupied by the Kosciuszko Foundation.
