First topic message reminder :

Thought it would be good to list the items you lovely forum members donated to the Silistra Orphanage so far.

Dougie and myself wish to thank you for your generous donation that you posted to us - we are just over the moon with the items so far from Ashley Admin and Guy Mugshot.



You are truly little superstars

I need your help please!!!!

My friend Rachel has contacted me to say 'still got cupboards full of soft toys and dolls at house in Austria and would like to know if a there is anyway someone could pick up? We could meet somewhere in Austria or possibly Hungary. Will be several boxes. There are around 3 wardrobes full of them. Seems a shame to throw away and have to go as a "
fire hazard"
and have to pay to get rid of everything here so..........how can we get all this to you in Bulgaria or to the orphanages. No major hurry so long as I know its going at some point in the next month or so.

So guys if any of you are traveling over by car/van and can help get them to Silistra or even Dobrich we can moved from there. If you could help in any way please can you let me know. Thank you so much. Berni &

Some good NEWS!!! We have great news!!! Thank you to Charles Myer of [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] who will be able to help us with the collection of the soft toys from Rachel Gawith in Austria and take to Bulgaria. This is fantastic thanks you so much!

We have more than enough toys now at all the Silistra establishment therefore, we will donate these toys to Popovo Orphanage/Community an orphange we have helped with shoeboxes last year. Charles is from the VT area so it makes more sense for us to donate there. He will take them to Gemma Stevenson and Clairey Elizabeth Willis-Kidd who will distribute accordingly.. Thank you Charles and also to [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ... 026?ref=hl

Hi Guys

[size=150:22yyz4g3]Thought I would share our good news from one of our long term donors. Borislav at Nominal Ltd (Accounting Co in Bulgaria) [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] has been with us now for 5 years and each year he makes a donation to the Silistra Orphanage of 10% on every tax return the Company does. He was our very first Bulgarian Company who came forward to help us and as you can see we have his banner at the top of the forum. Borisloav has made his donation again this year a massive £350 which is just wonderful Thank you so much Borislav we are turly delighted. We will put the money to good use as always. Thank you again you have been brilliant. Angel2:

:Thank you:It is that safe even we cannot get in without the main keyholder and securty guards escrt us all over and stay with us - We dare not take anything out .

I spoke with the deputy Governor today and she is looking for a big lorry to move the stuff. I asked could we have a key so we can pop in and out to sorted the load but this is not allowed as it is a secured area So we have to sort everything on the day we load the lorry up again. We will wade through 500+ boxes so wish e luck.....

Morning Guys
We have some brilliant news!!! Our sponsors Bon Marine Shipping Agency in Varna have decided that they and all their staff in Varna wish to help once again with the Teenage Disability Centre Glavinitiza campagain to donated various items. This is indeed brilliant news Thank you so much to everyone at Bon Marine.

Directror Emil Kaikamdjozov and his staff have been very supportive to us and our cause, Early this year they got together and collected a truck load to inc clothes, toys, toiletries, furniture and Bon Marine bought a palled of food at a cost of over 1000lev Адела Алекова delivered everything to us. This is a real breakthrough for these youngsters at the centre who have little or nothing themselves. It is a brilliant way for companies to help those who are less fortunate in life. Adela will let me know when they are ready to bring the goods to Siistra, than we can all visit Glavinitiza to make the donation. Thank you much Berni &
