15 Feb
On February the 15th, 2018, on an official event, with the presence of the media partners of the donation campaign „Izberi, za da pomognesh / Choose to help”, the results of her 9th edition were taken into account. Our project "School without Borders" has received the greatest support in the section "Culture and Education" - a total of BGN 10 121 and that amount of money was donated to our association by Raiffeisen Bank, its employees and clients. Thanks also to the donation of 10 000 BGN by Mrs. Elka Barzakova, our project is financially secured for an extended period of time.

In November 2017, the campaign of Raiffeisen Bank AD „Izberi, za da pomognesh / Choose to help” has started. The Association participates in the project "School without Borders for Children with Oncohematological Diseases". The project was designed to enable children to continue to study during their treatment, to help them learn their lessons and to successfully complete the exams during the school year. The project covers children of school age who are treated in clinics in Sofia, Plovdiv and Varna.

Through knowledge we build a symbolic bridge between the hospital setting and the outside world in which the child will return. Thanks to "Poznanie" AD, children have access to free use of VEDAMO virtual classroom, which allows computer and distant classes. A pedagogue enters the ward and works with the children next to their bed. In this way they receive support to feel more confident when eventually they are back to school.
