First Meeting of the Public Council
18th December, 2020.
The Public Council has passed a decision to allow grants for 7 children, who lost a medical worker or a teacher parent in the battle with Covid-19 in Bulgaria.
As of January 1st 2021 those children will be receiving 500 BGN on a monthly basis throughout the year.
According to the general conditions of the Fund the grants will be renewed yearly until the children become of age or until they graduate high school. If the Fund is not able to provide the full monthly amount of 500 BGN – the available funds will be evenly distributed between the children.
Today 1-year grants were approved for:
– two children, 5 and 7 years old whose father Dr. G. died of Covid-19.
– two children, 9 and 11 years old who lost their mother K.V. (a teacher)
– a 16 year-old child who lost its mother A.P. (a teacher). Unfortunately the child is now an orphan.
– a 3 year-old child who lost its mother G.T. (a teacher)
– a 13 year-old child who lost its mother A.B.(a teacher)
One of the children has a birthday today. The first birthday without dad. Be healthy, dear child! It’s our wish for you made with all our hearts!
We give thanks to all members of the Public Council who have also discussed the options to maintain the Fund. We’ll announce some of the ideas soon.
