What We Do & Why
Odyssey is a non-profit organization supporting local social institutions by developing & promoting social engagement in Bulgaria.
We began our own odyssey in 2012 in cooperation with St. Filomena, a German non-profit organization, by initiating social aid campaigns in the region of Razgrad, Bulgaria. In 2014, members of St. Filomena and other activists founded ODYSSEY to offer on-site support to the growing number of local institutions working towards sustainable social engagement.
