Consul General's Address
08 February 2012 NewsDear fellow Bulgarians and friends of Bulgaria,
Feb.8th is declared a day of national mourning for the victims of the flooding in Southern
Bulgaria which took the lives of 8 people. Whole villages were flooded after the bursting of a
dam wall – hundreds are now left homeless in winter conditions.
The Consulate General of Bulgaria in Los Angeles has opened a dedicated bank account in order
to raise donations for the flood victims. All funds will be sent to the Bulgarian Red Cross
http://www.redcross.bg/ who are coordinating the relief efforts to provide shelter, food and
clothing to the people in the affected areas.
If you would like to contribute to this worthy cause then please make out a check to the
Consulate General of Bulgaria and send it to:
Consulate General of Bulgaria
11766 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 440
Los Angeles, CA 90025
Thank you to all of you who take this cause to heart!
Marin Dimitrov
Consul General
