Prison Ministry


Our work in prisons is aimed towards preparation for successful re-integration into society of soon-to-be-released prisoners. Star of Hope furnished the New Beginning Centre in Bobov Dol prison. In this Centre, prisoners learn life skills and social skills, and are prepared for life out of prison. New literature in this prison’s library has been provided through our donation.


Our Foundation funds professional training courses in prisons /Sofia, Bobov Dol, Pazardzhik/ in computer literacy, cooking, baking, carpentry, welding, etc – all with qualified teachers.


Star of Hope supports the prison administrations in organizing and holding Christmas celebrations for children of prisoners and family re-unions of prisoners’ families. Also, we help meet basic needs of prisoners upon their immediate release.
