The Free and Democratic Bulgaria Foundation has ceased its activities as of June 1, 2009.

However, the FDBF will maintain its legal registration and bank accounts so that any donations received in the future can be redirected according to donors’ wishes to any of the independent organizations, which the FDBF founded and supported through the years:

• Alliance for Children and Youth;
• Institute for Studies of the Recent Past;
• Bulgarian School of Politics;
• Outward Bound-Bulgaria;
• Junior Achievement-Bulgaria.

Friends and patrons in the United States will still be able to send their tax-deductible contributions to the Train Foundation (see Support Us for further information).

Thank you all once again for your help and trust during those 18 wonderful memorable years; may our work and achievements continue to serve as an example and make an impact on the future development of Bulgaria!
