At BSB students take an active role in a variety of fundraising activities. By helping others they develop their own social awareness and learn to take initiative in supporting the community. Some Secondary Students plan their own fundraising events as part of their qualification for the Duke of Edinburgh Award.
Our school has active partnerships with many community organizations including the following:
Inocenti Foundation - helps hospitalized children Asociatia Vasiliada - support for poor children in rural areas The Guide Dog Association - train the first Romanian Guide Dog to help blind people Down Syndrome Association of Bucharest - support for youngsters with the Down syndrome St Stelian's - support for street children Concordia - Austrian charity organization supporting street children and orphans Remar Foundation - Supports homeless adults and children Second Chance - Aid for a community in Berceni, on the outskirts of Bucharest
We raise money and collect clothes, toys and food to support these local charities with a variety of activities throughout the year.
