We run the year-round mentoring program “Bulgaria’s Hidden Talents”, which gives a chance for professional qualification to youth deprived of parental care and youth at risk. The organization also leads the largest Christmas campaign for the fulfillment of children’s dreams of disadvantaged children and youth in Bulgaria.
Through the Year-Round Mentoring Program “The Hidden Talents of Buglaria” we prepare gifted children at risk for university or get them qualified to start work once they leave their home. We provide them with: private lessons, personal mentors, scholarships, all required books, equipment and materials, access to workshops, seminars and qualification.
For the past 16 years we have run the biggest grass root Christmas Campaign for making disadvantaged children’s wishes come true in Bulgaria. If you want to participate, please find a Bulgarian speaking friend to help you, as the gifting platform only works in Bulgarian language. The next Campaign starts on 1st November 2025 and ends on 6 December 2025!
Have you ever heard of a fairy tale based on a real life story? Well, there is one! “The Talented Bear Monny” tells the real life story of Minka Kirilova – Monny. She is one of the young people we helped enter university through the “Hidden Talents of Bulgaria” Mentoring Program. Monny published a second book in partnership with Orange Publishing House. You can find this book in any Orange Bookstore (currently only in Bulgarian).
