get involved at SPK

For over 75 years, SPK Branch 20 has been a central part of Toronto’s Polish-Canadian community. Our founding SPK members were veterans of the First and Second World Wars dedicated to fighting for a free and independent Poland. At the same time, they were proud Canadians and played a significant role in building the economic, social, and political fabric of Polonia and our city. Today, SPK is committed to honouring the memory of our veterans and upholding their legacy.

Our branch is actively recruiting new members, and we welcome your interest in joining. Membership is open to all people of Polish descent who commit to upholding the values of our organization. SPK membership focuses on supporting Poland’s independence, promoting Polish history and culture within Canada, and assisting war veterans and their families, while fostering Polish traditions among younger generations.
