Supporting education opportunities equips young people with the skills to compete for quality jobs and nurtures the entrepreneurs, business leaders, and science innovators that will ensure Bulgaria has a bright future. None of these successes would matter without an environment of freedom and justice. That is why ABF supports independent media as well as civil society organizations focusing on judicial reform and anti-corruption. These organizations uncover how our money is spent and give us access to the truth, fostering an environment where innovation flourishes, cor- ruption diminishes, and societies blossom. 15 magazine is a tribute to the shared vision to make Bulgaria an even better place to build your future. It embodies the spirit of collabo- ration, determination, and innovation that has
characterized our partnership, our &, with the incredible people of this country. I am excited to share this publication with you, and I hope it sparks inspiration and appreciation for the progress we — Bulgarians & Americans — have witnessed together. To our many partners and friends, to the ded- icated ABF team and board of directors, cur- rent and past, thank you for being part of this enriching and transformative journey. I look forward to continuing our collective efforts to create an even brighter future for Bulgaria. The story does continue.
Warmest regards,
Nancy Schiller, President America for Bulgaria Foundation
