Acting on behalf of other people in times marked by individualization and domocentrism seems to be an abstract task. Families raise their children firstly as good students, but then motivate them to a career, better earnings and prestige. This text tries to answer the questions: Do Polish families form pro-community in their descendants? What does it manifest itself in their homes? How can it be developed? The aim: The article focuses on the phenomenon of pro-community with regard to definitions, classifications, motives and development conditions. Method: The study used the analysis of the subject literature. Results: The theoretical elaboration (definitions, classifications, motives and developmental conditions) has been supplemented with an indication of possibilities of supporting pro-community of children and youth in the family, taking into account interpersonal relations and participation in religious life and virtual space. Conlusions: The community is present in the life of Polish families – in their everyday life and in religious communities. It is shaped by the use of modern information technologies. Therefore, greater attention of the members of the household should be focused on contemporary interpersonal skills and technological possibilities, in which action for the benefit of others can be realized.
