Description
The school in Vidin in Bulgaria, one of the poorest and backward cities in the EU, on the border with Calafat in Romania, began activities in September 2015 after securing financing via the signing of a contract with local sponsors.
The project is operated by the NGO “Step for Bulgaria” who collaborate with our local on-site partner “Amigos del deporte” and has the support of the government at the highest level as the president of the Republic, Mr Rosen Plevneliev is the honorary president of the project because of his friendship with Nikolina Angelkova, president of the NGO Amigos del Deporte and the current minister of tourism.
The project seeks to contribute to internal development by reducing the risk of social exclusion and to facilitate social integration of children at risk of exclusion in Bulgaria. Despite the expansion of sporting facilities in Bulgaria, the majority are inaccessible to disadvantaged boys and girls.
