"BG Be Active"Association invites NGOs, sports clubs and educational institutions to encourage the organization of clean-up events and educational talks in connection with the campaign "NO to illegal dumping", with a focus on water spaces.

"We started the campaign a few years ago in an effort to prevent the formation of such dumps. Very often each of us witnesses various small dumps around fields, rivers, forests. In our favorite places that we often visit, we find tires, sofas, mattresses and other waste that does not belong there. With the invitation, we call on NGOs, sports clubs and educational institutions to organize their own events as part of the campaign, and we will support them and help them with a sum of money and a part of the organization of the events", says Rumyana Kirizieva from the association.

The applying organizations will be evaluated according to the ambitions of their proposals and the five selected candidates will receive a free financial aid of 500 EUR.
