The President Elect of Rotaract Club Sofia International, Ms. Nevena Ivanova had the floor. She mentioned many cases of how Rotaract and our club worked together, like the “Buy and Donate” campaign and many others.
“When they need help – we are there, if we need help, they are doing the same and helping us! We had difficult moments with our RotaRun projects, the Rotary club encouraged us, and they said – “You can!” – and that was really important to us. I cannot express in words how happy I am, that I am part of that Rotaract club, of that Rotary family…I would like to encourage you also to work close with your Rotaract and Interact clubs. In our Sofia International family we have achieved true partnership. When the club held its Charity Gala concert on 9 May, we were there again! I am really proud and happy and in the years I hope to continue to work like that with our Rotary Club!” said Nevena.
Our friend Mr. Ibrachim Kachan, President of Rotary Club Kazanlak also gave a speech about the project of buying an Incubator for babies in the hospital in Stara Zagora.
