Less than a month remains until the start of the new school year, which is always filled with lots of excitement, commotion and emotions for children, teachers and parents. To secure more smiles on September 15, together with UniCredit Bulbank, we are launching a joint charity initiative to support Ukraine’s children.

Anyone who wants to help can donate new or used but well-preserved school supplies (backpacks, bags, notebooks, writing and drawing aids, etc.).

Donations will be collected on:

September 1 (Friday) and September 4 (Monday) at UniCredit Studio (next to the UniCredit Bulbank central branch at 7 St. Nedelya Square) from 9.00 h to 4.00 h.

The collected school supplies will be sent to Ukraine Support & Renovation, a charitable foundation based in Plovdiv that supports Ukrainians that have been forced to leave their country.

“Every child has the right to accessible education and a chance for a happy life. Let’s join forces again and help students start the year smiling and inspired for new knowledge,” commented Tsvetanka Mincheva, Chair of the Council of Women in Business in Bulgaria.

“We’d like to thank everyone who will support us in our desire to bring normality back to the lives of the children who sought salvation from the war. I am confident that we will give them a happy start to the school year so that they feel included and equal. Stay assured that everything will be sent to the students for the long-awaited September 15”, promised Nata Ellis, representative of the Ukraine Support & Renovation Foundation.
