We also introduce you to Milena Nedelcheva: What guides me in my work is the belief that real change begins with attitude – with care, attention, and respect for each child and their uniqueness.

My name is Milena Nedelcheva. I grew up in a family where love and care were the foundation of everything. These early lessons in humanity and support left a deep mark on me and continue to shape the path I have chosen. When I was 13, I lost my father – an event that changed […]

Darinka has been part of our team for over 20 years: For 20 years now, I have had the privilege of doing what I love – supporting children and families and finding meaning in every smile, every small victory, and every helping hand.

My name is Darinka Milanova. I grew up as the younger child in a large, hardworking, and close-knit family – together with my grandparents, parents, and older brother. From an early age, I was surrounded by love, care, and a strong sense of belonging. In our home, there was always abundance – no...

Another invaluable member of our team - Plamena Stefanova: For me, this job is not just a position or a career. It is a choice - to be part of change, to protect the dignity of vulnerable people and to create an environment where care and respect are the guiding principles.

My name is Plamena Stefanova. As a child, I dreamed of becoming a doctor and helping people. Life, however, took me in a different direction, and many years ago I chose to study a field that was new to Bulgaria at the time – Social Pedagogy. After graduating in 2000, I found myself facing a […]

An important part of our team is Stefka Peteva: Sometimes the most important thing we can give is simply to be there for someone - with attention, patience, and heart.

My name is Stefka Peteva. My professional path began in an unexpected, yet deeply meaningful way – in a kindergarten, as a teacher. Although my initial education was in finance, my encounters with children led me to rethink my direction and discover my true calling. Working with children inspired ...

Here is Svetla Mezhri: Children need simple, human things – love, understanding and care. And it is our responsibility to give them that.

My name is Svetla Mezhri. For a long time, I stood at a crossroads between education and social work – both paths brought me close to children in need of support. In education, I learned how important it is to understand children’s feelings and to teach them not only knowledge, but also the most...

Sometimes a cause starts with a simple idea – that play can be more than just fun. It can be a chance, a support and a new beginning.
That is exactly the mission of the **“Play is our mission”** campaign – to raise funds to provide more opportunities for play, development and an equal start for the children who need support the most.
We believe that every child deserves a space in which to be free, confident and accepted. A space in which through play they learn, grow and discover the world.
With your help, this mission becomes a reality. Every donation is a small step towards a big change – towards more smiles, more shared moments and more childhoods filled with opportunities.

If you want to support the cause, you can do so here:

Because play is not just an action. It is a way to change lives. 💙

We continue with an introduction to our team: David Bissett "I don't work with 'broken' children. The circumstances they live in are broken. And they can be changed."

As I’ve grown older, my frontline engagement in the spheres of childcare and education has diminished and I have come to dedicate more time to research and consultancy. This has increased the range and intensity of my engagement with social services and academia throughout Europe. Throughout my ad...

Our Team

Elena Petkova is the co-founder and the heart behind the cause of Equilibrium – someone for whom supporting the vulnerable is not just a choice, but a deeply personal mission.
Inspired by personal experience and a strong sense of justice, she dedicates her path to being a voice for those who often remain unheard. Together with the team, she turns values ​​into action and contributes to building a space in which every child and family receives understanding, care and a chance for a better future.
Elena Petkova brings within herself empathy, resilience and belief in change – qualities that inspire and give meaning to everything Equilibrium does. 💙

My name is Elena Petkova. I did not start this work as a career choice. I started it because of one person – my brother. He taught me to see the world from the perspective of those who are more vulnerable. To feel injustice not as an abstract concept, but as something real, happening here […]
