Together with them, Diana Doncheva, Director of the Directorate "European and National Programs and Projects, Humanitarian Activities" and Antoineta Sharkova from the same Department were also supporting the initiative. With a symbolic act of planting the trees, the children sent their message against violence. One of the events was in the school yard of Pencho Slavekov Primary School and 8th March Kindergarten. The initiative was joined by the children from Radost Kindergarten, as well as from the Lyuben Karavelov and Aleko Konstantinov schools.
