Bulgarian Christmas Charity Initiative Brings Record Revenues

Society | January 3, 2006, Tuesday // 00:00

The record sum of over EUR 1 M has been gathered by the charity initiative "The Bulgarian Christmas" held under the patronage of president Georgi Parvanov.

Compared to the previous year, the initiative was a whooping success, as the amount was almost doubled.

Short text messages and phone calls for the cost of EUR 0.5 contributed to about half of the amount. EUR 600,000 was donated to the bank account opened for the initiative.

Like in the previous year, a Christmas concert marked the culmination of the initiative, but the phone lines were left active until New Year's Eve.
