Dozens of students from Bulgarian universities with high academic accomplishments, whose families are financially constrained, are receiving scholarships from private donors in the US. The initiative belongs to the Nelly and Robert Gibson foundation. The Gibsons have been helping young people in Bulgaria for 20 years, BNR’s Mira Stefanova reports. Nelly and Robert Gibson believe that support for the education of young people provided in time is an investment in the future.
The programme was launched in 2004, when American philanthropist and benefactor Robert Gibson and his wife Nelly Gibson (Nelly Lozanova) came to Bulgaria with a desire to be helpful in the sphere of education. Nelly and businessman Robert Gibson say they themselves completed their own education with the support of private donors and that they will never forget what this gesture has meant to them.
