TELUS International Bulgaria, in collaboration with our partner, Bulgarian Donors’ Forum, proudly announces the donation of over 800 pieces of retired office furniture to nine civil organizations and community centers across the country. We aim to create a better environment for educational activities for thousands of students, including Ukrainian refugees and is a natural continuation of TELUS International Bulgaria’s efforts to foster positive social change by supporting local communities. The donation saved roughly BGN 32,000 of costs for the organizations.
