The Easter campaign “To grandma and grandpa with love” is collecting products for elderly people with impaired mobility who live alone and subsist on an income of EUR 3.50-6.00 a day.

The initiative belongs to the Danak Dobro foundation, in partnership with Sofia municipality’s Community Care municipal undertaking. Before Easter, the items collected will be handed out by volunteers to the elderly in 24 Sofia districts. But the organizers say they will continue the initiative after the Easter holidays, and will repeat it at least several times a year.
