Shumen Plateau Nature Park is an example of how caring for nature, for the people of Shumen and the children of Shumen can unite the state, the municipality, the private and non-governmental sectors. "All volunteer actions during the year are significant," noted the Director of the Park, Eng.

In volunteering, there are no firsts and lasts, all efforts are equally valuable to us and ultimately benefit society. Thank you!
