„Всичко българско и родно любя, тача и милея“

May every young Bulgarian know the source and meaning of this verse. With your help Elin Pelin school can turn that wish into reality. With your support more and more American children with Bulgarian roots will learn to read, write, and speak fluently in their mother language.
