There is only one turtle dedicated rescue center in Bulgaria. Over its 14 years of existence it has helped cure and hatch over 6 000 adult and baby turtles. They are fundraising 13K BGN (7K have already been raised) to equip a medical cabinet to treat injured turtles. Turtles are an endangered species with humans affecting their population by overhauling their natural habitats by pollution, infrastructure building, etc. More about the campaign here: https://www.platformata.bg/bg/kauzi/1388:podari-topla-cherupka/details/campaign.html

Туморът, който причинява всичко това е голям и се намира на място в мозъка, което не позволява операция.

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089984340451 This is Stefan, who is 7 years old and should be in first grade this fall. As a result of a car accident, Stefcho is completely immobilized from the chest down. Regardless of the difficulties he is going through, Stefcho is smiling in all the photos, making efforts and fighting daily for the opportunity to walk again. There is a chance for recovery and a chance for Stefcho to walk again, but it all depends on his family being able to provide him with daily, intensive, specialized rehabilitation, as well as prostheses and a stabilizing chair so he can go to school. At the moment it is clear that there are specialized clinics in Germany, Slovakia and Israel that have equipment and specialists suitable for Stefan's condition. The offer from Germany is for EUR 30,000 for one 6-week session. The child will need four such sessions annually to restore his spine. These are only part of the costs, as they do not include the transport and stay during Stefcho's rehabilitation abroad. Special leg prostheses worth BGN 1,300 have already been ordered to keep the joints straight and avoid contractures and complications. It is necessary to order two more types of prostheses with which he can be straightened in stages - they will cost over 30,000 BGN. The chair we mentioned is between 2,000 and 4,000 BGN. Some of the orthoses need to be replaced at 6 months as Stefcho grows every day. His family is unable to cover these financial needs and they need help to see their child walk again. Please, support this little hero!

Filip Daniel Tsochev, who is 14 years old, has successfully auditioned to one of the oldest music schools in the UK - The Purcell School in London. After his successful audition - which earned him an unconditional offer less than 24 hours later - he is set to join a cohort of young and talented students from 23 different nationalities from September 1, 2023. Filip’s enrollment as a Bulgarian student would make the nationalities 24. With this wonderful achievement, also comes a difficult task. Unfortunately, following Brexit, Filip is unable to take advantage of the UK’s scholarship support for young musicians. Despite that, The Purcell School were kind enough to extend financial support from their private fund, offering to cover 35% of the annual tuition fee. Which leaves his family with the remaining 65%, equivalent to roughly £25,810 (or BGN: 60,000). This huge sum is not something the family is able to afford, which is why I am opening up this campaign, with a very heartfelt request for support. Filip is an extremely bright, talented and ambitious young man (you can read a little bit about his musical achievements down below), and we so deeply want to give him the opportunity to continue his studies in a musically and academically competitive environment, which can open his door to any stage, a wonderful cohort of teachers and academic advisors, and to take a huge leap when it comes to music composition and advancing his technical skills. With joy and hardship, also comes hope. And we’re extending a hopeful hand to anyone who may be able to support Filip’s academic journey, in any way, shape or form- big or small. Any support is immensely appreciated. Here are some of Filip’s musical accomplishments to date: Filip was born on 8th November 2008 in Sofia, Bulgaria. He first began playing the cello at only 7 years old, after being accepted to study at the National Musical School “Lubomir Pipkov”. Over his musical career, he has studied under the master classes of world-renowned cello professors, including: Stefan Popov (United Kingdom & Bulgaria), Denis Severin (Switzerland), Anatoliy Krastev (Bulgaria), Michel Strauss (France). He’s a laureate of many national and international competitions. Filip was only 10 years old when he made his debut as a solo cellist with the Sofia Symphony Orchestra. He has many Orchestra performances under his belt now, at only 14 years old. Despite not currently having his own instrument (we have been kindly lent a cello, due to the high cost of the instrument), he donated his very first cello (size ½) to the “Music Over Street” foundation in Sliven.
