Dear sirs,
Please accept my most heartfelt congratulations and wishes on the occasion of the 175th Anniversary since the foundation of the oldest international Jewish organization B’nai  B’rith,  which has earned its authority and recognition in the fight for justice and human rights not only in the USA but also worldwide.
Your noble mission in establishing the beginning of donation and humanitarian aid during natural disasters, which later developed further with the building of orphanages and homes for elderly people as well as your fight against hatred and in defence of human rights, is an undeniable cause for pride and satisfaction.
For 120 years now B’nai B’rith has been into existence in Bulgaria too offering the best practices you have created throughout the world. We are grateful for the support B’nai  B’rith gave our country and society during the period of transition to democracy and the full membership of Bulgaria in NATO and the EU. We highly appreciate your efforts for building bridges and friendship between Bulgarians and Jews around the world and between Bulgaria and Israel. Your contribution to the popularization of the rescuing of the Jewish community during World War II is also extremely valuable.
In a world full of serious challenges we will continue to co-operate with B’nai  B’rith to achieve lasting peace and harmony on the planet.
I wish you success in continuing to fulfill your mission.
