Bulgarian President Rumen Radev has officially given the start of the 15th edition of the Bulgarian Christmas Charity Campaign. This happened at an official ceremony at the St. George University Hospital in Plovdiv, which has been among the active participants in the initiative over the years.

This year's campaign will be organised under the slogan "In Support of a Rescued Children's Life". Last year, the donation campaign was dedicated to children suffering from severe chronic illnesses. The funds collected reached over 1.3 million euros. The "Bulgarian Christmas" has been held under the auspices of the President since 2003. For yet another year the Bulgarian National Radio is a media partner of the initiative.
