About Blagorodna Badeva Charity Foundation

BBCF has been founded and registered in 2005 in memory of the distinguished Bulgarian violinist Blagorodna Badeva who died very young from diabetes. The main aim of the Foundation is to help young Bulgarian musicians, violinists in particular, by means of:
– scholarships for studying, competitions and masterclasses
– free lending of musical instruments
– creating performing opportunities in the form of small concerts in social homes [for elderly people, orphanages, day centres, etc] after the model of Menuhin’s Live Music Now!
The second aim of the Foundation is to help young musicians suffering with diabetes.
D. Gamalova is founder and president of the foundation.

This year the Foundation is giving 5 awards amounting 1500 leva to promising young violinists in Bulgaria and another 4 students are using good instruments offered by the Foundation.
