Abstract: The activity of non-governmental organizations based primarily on activities that are undertaken by them. These actions can be twofold of apparent actions or real action. Nevertheless, regardless of their nature, they are an important part of the activities of the organization, because they not only differentiate the third sector, but also sometimes decide about the existence of the organization. The reasons for this are many; one of them may be a goal of organizations? activities. Indeed, for some organizations is a priority to undertake actions that on the one hand implement previously established goals, on the other hand meet the expectations of the outside world. Others have consciously decided to implement a apparent actions that allow their initiators to "save face" in a given community or outside of it.The situation described above implies the need for deeper reflection and a closer look at the efforts of rural NGOs in Poland. Characteristics of their activities will be made on the basis of research, which was carried out within the project "Good Start" and the theory of apparent and real actions of Jan Luty?ski.
