Sufficient information and preparation for finding a job after school is not always available to disadvantaged teenagers in Bulgaria. This includes youths without parents, from minority or geographically marginalized communities or with otherwise limited access to professional development resources. This project provides group and 1-to-1 career education and mentoring with the goal of helping youths break the cycle of poverty in their families and communities.

The goal of the Mentoring Program is to provide personal and vocational mentorship to children in Bulgaria growing up without adequate parental care. With your support, we can reach more of the 100,000+ children in need of such guidance. We will do this by growing and training our network of mentors, who provide this vulnerable group with long-term mentorship to help them escape poverty. Step for Bulgaria has been dedicated to helping youths deprived of parental care since 2007.
