Since the beginning of the fundraising campaign “Bottle caps for the future”, hospitals in the country have received 22 incubators, 4 children’s ambulances and more than 40 pieces of medical equipment used to save the lives of newborn babies. 
A little over a year ago the initiative raised enough money for an off-road ambulance for use in areas in the region of Plovdiv that are difficult of access. The good news is that the second all-terrain vehicle is now ready, to be used in Sofia and the environs. But that is not all, write Lazar Radkov and his team on Facebook.
“Rescue clubs for the future” will now be organized – actually, one of them has already opened doors in Sofia. At these clubs anyone wanting to will be welcome to learn what to do in the event of floods, fires, earthquakes or other life-threatening natural calamities or anthropogenic factors. One more such club is to open in September, and many towns, like Kyustendil, Stara Zagora, Varna, Plovdiv and Haskovo, say they want rescue clubs as well. Setting up the clubs does not mean the campaigns for collecting and recycling plastic bottle caps and aluminum cans are over, on the contrary – they continue in full force.
