October 7, 2011Jumping off a bridge
October 11, 2011As you might have read, back in August we did our first charity tours – the donations from both our morning and evening tours were collected to support one social home for disadvantaged children in the village of Doganovo near Sofia. Some Bulgarian friends of ours also contributed to the initiative. We received total donations amounting to 370 BGN.
The school year in Bulgaria started on 15th September. Just 2 days before that, the children from the social home received new sport shoes.
After the success of the first charity tour, we decided to make it a regular event. So now, every 6th of the month donations from both our morning and evening tours would go for the same social home. 200 BGN were already spent on new equipment – for a new project that the Fondation “Bulgarian Mothers Movement” started with the youngest kids from the house. They are making regular visits to the ranch “El Paso” in Vitosha mountain – to learn how to ride horses and to take care of the animals in the ranch. The first visit is already a fact:
We would like to thank very much everybody who participated in our charity tours so far! Anyone who wants to contribute to this project can use the bank account or the Paypal account of the Free Sofia Tour Association (with details for the payment: “charity tour”). Or just join our tour on every 6th of any month 🙂
