Since today is the World Children’s Day, the “Act of Kindness” organization has sponsored and organized a field trip for the children that reside in “Melissa”, the girl’s orphanage of Thessaloniki. 

Filled with joy and excitement, members of the “Act of Kindness” organization welcomed these young ladies to “Ziogas Western City”, where they all participated in outdoor activities in this magical scenery of alternative tourism. 

The children were educated in the history of the estate, they visited all the facilities and after a short horseback riding tutorial, they got to ride their own horses. Afterwards, they went for a walk in nature, learned to do archery and in the afternoon, they all enjoyed a barbecue meal in a specially-formed outdoor area. They discussed about this amazing experience, their hopes and dreams and they also received some symbolic gifts form the representatives of our organization. 

We would like to kindly thank the administration, and especially the principal of the orphanage, Mrs. Mavrou Vasileia, for their collaboration and the trust they have shown in us. 

Until next time!
