“Compass” Ltd was awarded a recognition Prize at the 11th edition of the most prestigious corporate social awareness competition “Responsible Business Awards, 2013”, which was organized by the Bulgarian Forum of Leaders in Business. It is the third place Prize in the category Cause-Related Marketing and it was awarded by Mr. Branimir Botev, Deputy Minister of economics and energy, to Mr. Georgi Mandadjiev, Director of Marketing of the company for the long-standing initiative “Repair the Childhood” of the brand Happy Junior. In this project Compass, Ltd donates 8% of the sales of the children’s products Happy Junior to the Foundation “For Our Children”, which works for the cause of abandoned children in Bulgaria.
„We started this initiative, because we think that the family is one of the most important values and we believe that every child has to grow in such an environment, and the Foundation’s “For Our Children” team are the people who can make that happen for the abandoned children. 4 years later we are getting closer and closer to our ultimate goal – the day when the last institutional home for abandoned children will have its doors shut for good. I want to express my enormous respect to the whole team of the Foundation – to these heroes, who work 24 hours a day for every child to live in safety in a family. I want to congratulate them for what they are doing and to use this occasion to appeal to everyone, involved in the business sector, to support this cause, let it be your cause and I assure you that it will not be difficult for us to achieve this goal.”, said Mr. Georgi Mandadjiev at the Award Ceremony, which took place on 25th February, 2014 in Sofia Hotel Balkan.
