On the eve of one of the brightest Christian holidays, Easter, Dr. Petya Kashukeva, Mr. Kamen Filipov and Mr. Nikolay Nikolov, made a generous donation for the needs of the young clients who have a multitude of special needs, donating a treadmill, baby baskets, bodysuits, leggings, diapers, vegetables, meat and fruit purees, adapted milk, porridge, laundry detergents. On behalf of Equilibrium and the children we express our heartfelt gratitude.
Newlywed Sofia and Atanas are pictured making a donation towards the running costs towards our centre where we look after children in need of permanent medical care.
