Funding raised for two Bulgarian students to attend prestigious universities

Samuil Nikolov (L) and Petar Zhotev

Petar Zhotev will soon make his dream come true – he is going to study natural sciences at Cambridge, because the more than EUR 93,000 he needs has been raised, the Podkrepi.bg donations platform has announced.

Petar, who is a graduate of the Sofia High School of Mathematics, recently won his third gold medal at the international high school biology student Olympiad.

The fundraiser campaign for Samuil Nikolov from Veliko Turnovo has also ended in success – he is to study at one of the most prestigious space science universities in the US. He is the first Bulgarian who will be studying Space Operations.
