The charity event is in support of the Bulgarian Christmas charity initiative held under the auspices of the Bulgarian President. The organizers from Etara ethnographic museum received nearly 200 cornel-tree twigs decorated under an ancient Bulgarian tradition with popcorn, chili peppers, dried fruit, woolen tassels and thread. They were made by children from all parts of Bulgaria.
