Ambassador for the BG Food Bank
Charity: BG Food Bank
BHB rescues excess, usable food (from Food Industry Donors) that would otherwise be destroyed. They're then supplied to the logistics warehouse of the Bulgarian Food Bank. The packages are distributed through a network of partner organisations across the country, in support of food programs and services that provide nutritious food to tens of thousands of people in need. If the topics related to the waste of suitable food and the fight against hunger excite you, tell the BG Food Bank story to more people. Write about the BG Food Bank, or tell friends about their work. With volunteer help, the food is sorted and food packages are prepared.
Become a translator for PQF Bulgaria
Where: Wherever you are in the world!
Charity: Paint and Quarter Horse Bulgaria
The purpose of Paint and Quarter Horse Foundation Bulgaria is to provide high-quality therapeutic riding for children and adults with disabilities. This volunteer opportunity involves translating the foundation's website, social media posts, newsletters, and blog posts into various languages to increase global awareness and share their values. The role is flexible, allowing for both short-term and long-term commitments, and can be completed remotely, making it suitable for anyone with language skills who wants to contribute on their own schedule.
Donate food to the Bulgarian Red Cross

Charity: Bulgarian Red Cross
The Bulgarian Red Cross provides humanitarian aid, disaster relief, and health and social services to vulnerable populations in Bulgaria. It focuses on promoting human dignity, solidarity, and volunteerism while addressing critical issues such as poverty, emergencies, and community health. The food banks, built by the Bulgarian Red Cross, are a reliable mechanism for attracting local businesses and the public, who donate food products and funds.
