Here we show all the small but meaningful steps we take to support the people around us. Even with limited resources, we strive to make a difference - with attention and care for the needs of others. Every step is part of our larger goal: a better and more compassionate society.
Whatever we say about our stay on the Holy Mountain will not be enough. The nature, the conversations with the monks of the Zograf Monastery, the relics of our faith, the adventure - after everything we experienced, you know your soul can always find refuge there, away from the fog of everyday noise, and rediscover what is truly important and lasting.
Six hours of work and another place in Sofia has been transformed - this time with the great Col. Boris Drangov. Our summer activities are just beginning - message our page if you would like to join.
We made dozens of new acquaintances - passing through Ethiopia we met Orthodox metropolitans and the Bulgarian Fr. Filaret, who has preached in Africa for decades. We paid tribute at the grave of St. Nicholas of Japan, and in Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo we left literature in Japanese, English and Russian about the first Bulgarian martyr St. Boyan-Enravota, the Batak martyrs, St. Seraphim Sobolev and the Rila Monastery. On Easter, the church in Osaka gathered people from 11 countries - different, and yet united.
We joined the “Responsibly for Education” initiative of AONK, which allowed us to hold the workshop for nearly 200 children from grades 5-7 in the town of Svoge. We discussed what it means to be a hero, which qualities build the personalities that lead society, and how young people can take an active part in the processes around them. The most active students received T-shirts with the image of Col. Boris Drangov and his book “Remember the War”.
Vladi is 18 and should be graduating this year. In December 2025 he was diagnosed with lymphoblastic leukaemia, confirmed in Germany, where he is now being treated in a specialised clinic. Treatment started on time and is progressing without complications, but its cost - 130,000 euros - is beyond his family's means.
Our workshop in Kostinbrod has concluded. The teams' final task was to pick an issue that matters to them and build a campaign to solve it - from the moral values of adolescents to personal safety in extreme situations. Aleksandar, leader of one winning team, presented original social-media material, while Petar demonstrated how to act in a risky situation. We will help the youths organise an event with a guest lecturer. “There are many good boys, but if no one takes them under their wing, trouble finds them” - young people need an environment to grow in, and it is up to us to create it.
We are launching a new campaign to paint Capt. Dimitar Spisarevski, Vasil Levski and Georgi Rakovski at Rakovski Stadium - a favourite spot for many active Sofians. We want to restore and enrich the space at the entrance to the stands and the pitch.
We used the school holiday to honour the fallen airmen - above all Capt. Dimitar Spisarevski, whose plane crashed near Dolni Pasarel after downing one “flying fortress” and ramming a second. October 31st thus remained in the minds of the youths as a day of tribute to the defenders of the Fatherland.
For Independence Day we organised a tour of Slivnitsa, Gurgulyat and the sites of the battles of 1885 that were decisive for Bulgaria. Children and students have priority.
The Troyan Balkan - a place full of spiritual, natural and cultural treasures, and of wonderful people who preserve our ancestral memory through their crafts and their service to God. Expect more videos from the series “Know Bulgaria to love it”.
Detelin's mother reached out to us after he was injured in a motorcycle accident. The family is struggling and needs support to continue his rehabilitation and treatment. If you wish to send food or medicine: 22 Vasil Levski St., Hisarya, Milena Ivanova Peneva-Penkova, tel. 0988984171.
On 14 June 2025 the largest civil march for the family in Bulgaria's history took place, under the auspices of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. Thousands of us walked together along Sofia's main boulevards - united by faith, homeland, the traditional family and the legacy of our ancestors.
We thank BNT for the invitation to take part in the latest discussion on introducing “Virtues and Orthodoxy” in schools.
Petko Voyvoda is immortalised and honoured, and we are already thinking about the next national hero, Bulgarian Orthodox saint or martyr to paint across Sofia!
Twelve hours of work later, another beautiful piece is a fact. The facade of the community centre will now invite even more children to visit it and grow their patriotic spirit!
Our chairman Aleksandar Aleksandrov spoke at the round table “Virtues and religion in the education system - upbringing and values”, organised by Minister of Education Krasimir Valchev.
We set off at 14:00 from the Lion of the Iron Division, walked down Vitosha Boulevard with flags and laid flowers at the monuments of the Volunteers and the Unknown Soldier. Then we watched short screenings at the City Mark Art Center cinema. Thus March 3rd became a memorable date for the children and their parents. Heroes do not die - remember the legacy of your forefathers!
Another meeting with children about our heroes and role models. None of the children in the room knew about the great Col. Boris Drangov before we began - and after the videos they saw for themselves that people like him are worth emulating.
We filmed a video for the national holiday with children from different Sofia schools! The event was made possible thanks to FlagFlag.
On 18 February we gather at the monument at 11:30 to lay flowers, and at 12:00 we continue to the City Mark Art Center for several short films about the Apostle and Bulgaria. We look forward to seeing you!
A conversation with Nikolay Kolev on Radio Zorana on “Enlightenment and the youth”. Enlightenment is an eternal process that takes effort - but the reward is a generation ready to change the world for the better.
Nova TV asked us for a comment on the newest designer drugs and the harm they cause to young people. Kids, don't ruin your lives for temporary pleasures that are devastating in the long run!
We handed out 50 food packages to people in need in the centre of Sofia. Our thanks to @restaurant_dobro and @ourhomebulgaria for their support!
A conversation with four seventh-grade classes about role models, values and morals, about our heroes - and about the fact that we always have a choice and don't need to follow the crowd and its vices to be “cool”.
180 years since the birth of Captain Petko Voyvoda! We are raising funds for a portrait created by professional artists. The wall faces the 2nd English Language School “Thomas Jefferson” - let's change the environment around Bulgarian schools together!
The first part of the planned works around the school is now a fact - students will see the tricolour as they enter and leave!
The students of the 18th School now see the Apostle around their school instead of scribbles. We have prepared more artistic projects around different schools - so that the urban environment itself teaches love for the Homeland and its heroes.
Valentin underwent tumour surgery, has 50% disability and a minimal monthly income. He needs food, medicine, appliances and furnishings - but his sincere wish is to find a job in Pernik or Sofia so he can support himself. We prefer help in the form of purchased food, medicine or appliances - message us with any questions.
Thank you for the invitation to join the summer camp of the Sofia Theological Seminary, where we presented the first part of the series “Who are the heroes - Boris Drangov”. We spoke about the qualities of heroes, the seven virtues as a moral framework, and the hardships on the road to the person we want to become.
After numerous reports, the national media finally took interest in our investigation into the “children's parties” where alcohol and laughing gas are sold to children under 14. After Nova TV's Children's Day report we managed to engage the institutions with the case.
Together with youths from different schools we laid flowers at the monument of Hristo Botev and then cleaned up an illegal dump in South Park. Patriotism is proven through deeds!
The mural dedicated to the April Uprising is finished - our gratitude to all the young people who gave their time and labour so we could create another beautiful thing!
We toured the sites near Sofia where a foreign company plans exploratory drilling for a gold mine - right next to people's homes and endangering the drinking water of the whole region. We are preparing an information campaign so that Sofians realise they too will be affected.
Thank you to everyone who joined with donations, materials, promotion and labour. We are creating something beautiful and proving that the urban environment can teach patriotism and honour our national heroes.
Another hero of Sofia is immortalised - thank you to everyone who contributed to the initiative.
We spent September 6th in the village of Bogdan, Karlovo region. People's homes had been devastated by the flood, and volunteers from all over the country came to help however they could.
“Don't ask what Bulgaria gave you - tell us what you did for her.”
We took care of the site preserving the memory of the volunteers - because gratitude is shown through action.
One of our first deeds - we cleaned and refreshed the overpass to prove that changing our environment starts with ourselves.
The murals of our heroes, the workshops and the charity drives happen thanks to donors like you. The funds go towards materials, artists and the organisation of the initiatives.
