Haskovo’s Organization is one of the first ones and unites nearly 6000 people. The organization is very active. Its’ first chairman was Kosta Georgiev; later on he became Head of the National Movement of the Thracian Refugees. The organization existed and operated until 1934, when it was dissolved under the law banning political parties. Later it was restored as a cultural-charity associations, as it still exists today under the name Georgi Sapunarov Thracian Society, Haskovo.
