Days before the start of the prom season, the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy and the Foundation "Persons with Development Problems Assistance" are launching the charity initiative "Prom Dresses with a Cause" under the patronage of Minister of Labor and Social Policy Borislav Gutsanov, the press office of the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy announced.

The initiative, which will take place today in the domed space of the Largo area in Sofia, features a sale of dresses by famous Bulgarian designers that have premiered in various TV formats. The proceeds will be used for the renovation of the future Day Care Center for Children and Young People with Disabilities “Villa AutisticA” in Sofia’s Slatina district. The dresses will be donated to high school graduates from vulnerable groups, giving them a beautiful outfit for their prom. Donations will also be collected for the future Day Care Center in Slatina.
