One for all, all for one!

At the beginning of August, broken dams caused a flood in the town of Mizia, causing damages to the tune of millions. However, the forthcoming winter is now the second main fear of the citizens who have already lost their homes due to the tidal wave. The families should send their children to school too before the cold weather.

Luckily, the building of the Vasil Levski Professional High School in Chemical Technologies has preserved its second floor dry. On September 15, the kids will have their first classes in the 4 classrooms there, as well as in the library, which will be prepared for teaching purposes.

The children from the Banker Private Professional High School in Sofia have organized an initiative named Flowers for the Children of Mizia, in order to help the latter have a normal school year. The idea is to use the money usually spent for flowers gifted to the teachers as aid to the kids from Mizia.

In an interview for RB Nikolina Nenova, principal and founder of Banker Private Professional High School, gives us more details:

We decided to call for the help of everyone on September 15, following the initiative of the children and the 20th anniversary of the school. On October 6, the jubilee of the Nikolay Binev Youth Theatre we will place special boxes for collection of money. Anyone can drop the money planned on flowers there in order to support those in need.”

Why have the young economists picked up exactly this professional high school and not another school in the town of Mizia?

There are primary schools in Mizia, but economics is studied there. We are an economic school as well and we can help with textbooks and other kinds of literature,” Nikolina Nenova goes on to say.

The Flowers for the Children of Mizia initiative also develops the kids’ morality and this is the finest teaching method on Christian virtues. The Sofia school has each year charity activities for Christmas or Easter.

“This time we will devote the entire year to the Mizia high school – not only Christmas and Easter. On November 1, the Day of Awakeners we will organize something too. I have addressed colleagues and friends to support the initiative. The only condition set is nothing to go through our Banker High School – I have pointed to the bank account of the school in Mizia, so that the money can go directly there. I dream on a national initiative! I think people from all over Bulgaria would support it. Thus the schools will receive lots and lots of money…”

The citizens of Mizia need not only money, but also clothes, shoes, blankets, chairs, tablesand food. One can take the donation prepared to the closest office of the Bulgarian Red Cross, which will transport it to the people from the flooded town. Although this initiative, made from kids for kids seems like a drop in the sea, the important thing is that these people will get help. Let us do it because as the old adage goes, “One for all and all for one”!

The bank account of the Vasil levski Professional High School in Chemical Technologies in the town of Mizia is:
