Chance to Remain in Your Family


In Bulgaria, there are 7845 children, who live in orphanages because their parents are unable to sustain them. The number of the kids who are in jeopardy of losing their families and joining the group of the "
children from the orphanages"
is considerably greater.
The project under the motto "
A chance to remain in your family"
was launched by "
SOS Children's Villages - Bulgaria"
. It is based on the widely recognized view that family is the best and healthiest environment for a child to grow up and be educated in.
The initiative "
Make your choice to help"
is addressed to 500 kids at the risk of being abandoned by their parents. Raiffeisen Bank Bulgaria and Dir.bg are the initiators of the campaign, and The Standart news daily is its media partner. Under this initiative, direct services are provided to cover the kids' immediate needs of food, garments and medicines.
