We contacted the orphanage, “Olga Skobeleva” in Plovdiv because we learned that family type protected home will be built as a part of the process for deinstitutionalization of the children without parental care. At this home will live 6 to 12 years old children from “Olga Skobeleva”.

Our skills and voluntary work can help

After we took the decision to be part of the project and our meeting with the coordinator, it became clear that the backyard of the home has to be renovated. We took care by designing and installing pergola and benches from gabions, where the children can rest, read or just talk.

The work

Equipped with the necessary materials, tools and positive feelings, the VJF team entered the backyard in the early morning. Our assistants,the boys from “Olga Skobeleva” were thereto help with whatever they can. We were happy to communicate with them because communication and care is what these children needs at most.

After the long working day, tired, but charged with many positive emotions we left Plovdiv, but we promised will back for the opening.

1st June – the children’s day

1st June was the day of the official opening ceremony of protected home. The yard was full with childrenand guests.

The Director of the Plovdiv Social Services Complex “Olga Skobeleva” acknowledged the contributor to the cause as well as children who helped with their own ideas and labor for the construction of the new home.

We wish good luck to all the children and personal of the protected house. See you soon!
