Rotary Club Sofia International’s first meeting for 2020 was held on 8 January in Hilton Sofia. Traditionally for the start of the new year the President greeted all present and wished them health and prosperity. Mr. Kertev then continued with warm welcome for our guests. Our dear friends and members Mr. Claude Badan and Mrs. Inna Badan are back in Bulgaria. They were present in the meeting after few months of absence due to travelling. They were also very heartily welcomed. Inna and Claude were very active in France and participated in numerous Rotarian activities there. They presented the President with the District flag from France and shared a few words about their experience. Inna and Claude treated all the present with Rotary branded sweets from one of the activities they participated in.
Afterwards the main driver behind the MED-Bul Project, Mr. Rumen Rusinov, shared an article in Targovishte local newspaper about this project and the gratitude of the local hospital to our club. Rumen was again kindly greeted for his great contribution. Enormous thanks, as well, to Mr. Marc Bouzy who has provided the financial support for the transportation, crucial for the realization of the project.
