The "Rodzina Wojskowa" association was a women's organization in the Second and Third Polish Republics, bringing together mothers, wives, and daughters of Polish Army soldiers. It was founded on February 3, 1925, in Warsaw, with 300 women connected to the Polish military attending the founding meeting. Józef Piłsudski, who established the organization, was present at the gathering. It was the only women's association in history created by the Marshal. According to Piłsudski's directive, the organization was to be "the guardian of the soldier's home hearth and a social factor in harmonizing women from different social strata and intellectual levels (primarily wives of officers and non-commissioned officers)," with the main goal being to "organize material self-help during wartime and thus relieve, even in a small way, the soldier's burden of concern for the daily bread and ensure the security of his family hearth."
