The Gergana Bulgarian School in New York organised a charity sale of Christmas decorations made by the children of the Hug Me Studio in Sofia. The students of Gergana School decorated Christmas trees with the beautiful toys from Bulgaria. 

For the sixth year in a row, the school sponsored the creative activities of the Hug Me Studio workshop for children deprived of parental care. In 2024, the Embrace and Pass On campaign will be supported with more than BGN 5 thousand. 

"Dear friends, in Bulgaria, the USA and around the world, help the noble cause of Hug Me throughout the year and give the disadvantaged children a chance to grow up and study in nice schools in Sofia, to have unforgettable holidays and to continue their education after high school," appeals the Bulgarian school, which embraces the cause of Hug me Studio, organising joint workshops of its students and Hug Me alumni and charity concerts.
