Addressing a gathering of 2,700 high school finalists from the Social Wolves project, Ambassador Mosbacher commended the students for their achievements. She encouraged them to continue striving forward as they represent "the next generation of leaders in Poland." Drawing from her personal experiences of overcoming challenges, she urged the students to have confidence in themselves and take pride in their accomplishments.

Before delivering her speech, Ambassador Mosbacher visited the U.S. Embassy's education and exchange booth. There, she interacted with representatives from FLEX, Fulbright, EducationUSA, and Consular services who were distributing information about studying opportunities in the United States and other initiatives available for Polish youth.

Social Wolves is an educational platform that has been running for five years. It provides Polish youth with a no-cost opportunity to develop essential skills such as teamwork, communication, and leadership through social projects. Participants can create their own social action projects to enhance their skills for future success. The program also offers free online courses on marketing, IT, team building, and mentoring opportunities with corporate sponsors like Coca Cola and Google. Partners such as the Polish American Freedom Foundation also support these initiatives. Since its inception, Social Wolves has engaged over 20,000 participants and impacted 8 million people across Poland.
