As a nation, Bulgaria needs educated citizens. Far-reaching dissemination of knowledge, whether through schools or through libraries, is crucial to that education. The Foundation will seek to be a force behind improving such dissemination by supporting existing, successful models, and by creating new ones with the help of knowledgeable and imaginative Bulgarians dedicated to the long-lasting betterment of their country.

In the area of Education, the Foundation will begin its work by narrowing its focus to secondary and higher education, looking for funding opportunities which will creatively enhance the quality of teaching and learning in those sectors. The Foundation will also be interested in supporting professional development, serious academic research and short-term internships for study outside of Bulgaria.

The Foundation will seek to encourage conference and seminar discussion of Foundation interests, and be willing to fund resultant worthy projects.

Where organizations do not exist to develop the Foundation’s interests, funding formation of NGO’s to reach these goals will be a possibility.

In the area of libraries, the Foundation will also be interested in creative ideas for supporting and strengthening the public library system in Bulgaria and in the eventual electronic linking of library systems throughout the country and the world. Digitization of special collections in the nation’s research libraries might also be contemplated in the future.
