10th Anniversary Celebration in NYC

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined Children of Bulgaria for our 10th Anniversary Charity event in NYC on 8-June 2023! Your presence made it an unforgettable evening. Thanks to our incredible supporters, we were able to raise over $9,000 with this event!

If you weren’t able to join us or to donate, please enjoy videos of the event performers and our Co-Founder, Orlin’s speech. You could make a donation at childrenofbulgaria.org/donate-now!  and help us reach our 2023 Campaign goal of $100k for the kids with special needs and impaired hearing in schools in Plovdiv & Pleven!

We extend a special thanks to our incredible performers who donated their time & talent for Children of Bulgaria and our guests and donors who filled the night with emotion, music, and dance.

We were captivated by Gina DiDonato mesmerizing Bulgarian poetry reciting and moved to tears by the powerful folklore songs by Petya Maglova Shehova and the accordion music by her husband Hristo Shehov, who brought to us the magic of the enchanting Rhodope mountains.
Wes Georgiev, a young professional piano player, who recently moved from Portland to NYC, added a jazzy touch to the evening with his phenomenal  skills, accompanied by the talented jazz singer Gina DiDonato.
The program reached its peak with an electrifying flamenco performance by Momchil Gotchev (Monito).
We are incredibly grateful for all your kindness, energy, and generosity, which have touched our hearts deeply. All the funds go to the kids with special needs and kids with impaired hearing in Pleven & Plovdiv.

Thank you to the entire leadership team of volunteers Polina Jordanova, Orlin Jordanov, Kamen Stoykov, Pavel Piperkov, Tsvetelina Kemalova, and Maya Stephanova who are committed to using these funds to make a tangible impact for the kids in Bulgaria.

Our and your continuing support makes a difference in Bulgarian children’s lives. childrenofbulgaria.org/donate-now
