The National Revenue Agency and the Customs Agency have launched a joint campaign to prevent and combat gambling and drug addiction, the NRA has announced. 

The efforts of the two tax authorities to target young people in the joint initiative are under the slogan "You are not alone". The initiative was launched 23 years ago by Stefan Bakalov, Head of the Department for Combating Drug Trafficking in the Central Customs Department - Customs Agency. The campaign includes awareness-raising presentations on the dangers of addiction and drugs in various schools across the country. 

The first major event will take place on 16 August in Nessebar, and information about the campaign is also available on many popular social networking sites.
