The purpose of this paper is to present the role and importance of the Polish Farmers’ Wives’ Association, and to present the results of the author’s own research into the financing of the associations’ activity. This research is focused on analysing the activity of Polish women and the way they use EU funds in the context of rural women’s associations. The author’s own research was carried out in the Wielkopolska region (where the largest number of FWAs was recorded), and relied on a diagnostic survey questionnaire. The survey was conducted in January 2019. The figures collected were analysed with the use of selected statistical methods. This study provides a basis for further analyses. EU funds will certainly stimulate entrepreneurial activity among women in rural areas and will be an excellent stimulus for further action. In Poland, taking initiatives to establish the KGW is a little known phenomenon, but it is part of the concept of sustainable development. Thanks to legal changes, women can apply for EU funds, which they can use for various purposes, e.g. to promote local and regional dishes and cultural heritage. Creative activation of women in rural areas also increases their sense of entrepreneurship, which is important for them to enter public life and build cooperation between them.
