 The Scholarship Program
It is the third year of the project, in partnership with Bulgarian
Charities Aid Foundation (BCAF) and the Orphan Foundation. In
2008-2009, 105 students are receiving financial aid, 62 of them
in universities and 43 at high school level. The IWC is the major
financial supporter of the Program.
 Educational Camp, Smile Foundation
The IWC contributed funds to a summer educational camp
for the children of Gorna Banya and Dupnitza orphanages.
This camp complements the regular tutoring, mentoring and
activities that Smile Foundation provides throughout the year.
The camp includes sports and arts and crafts activities as well as
English courses and lectures with discussions on topics such as
health issues and prevention of criminal behavior.
