Meet our Founder
Dr. Daniela Atanassova is an internationally recognized pediatrician and was named Top Pediatrician of the Decade by IAOTP. She has devoted more than half her life to treating children in both clinical and emergency room settings, combining medical expertise with compassion. Fluent in five languages, Dr. Atanassova has authored publications in both American and Bulgarian medical journals and has raised two tennis champions, sharing her love for sports and discipline with her family.
Tragically, she lost her 20-year-old daughter, Stefani Lineva, whose passion for tennis and medicine was contagious. Inspired by Stefani’s spirit, Dr. Atanassova founded the StefanieForever20 Foundation, promoting sports, education, and opportunities for children. A strong advocate for preventive medicine, she believes, “From helping children learn how to properly breathe and develop strong bodies and minds, we can invest in their future.” She actively teaches and promotes nutrition, disease prevention, and sports psychology, blending science and practical guidance to empower children to thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Dr. Atanassova is also the author of a children’s medical book, reflecting her commitment to making complex medical knowledge accessible, fun, and educational for young readers worldwide.
OUR HISTORY
The StefanieForever20 Foundation was created in loving memory of Stefani Lineva, a 20-year-old sophomore at Binghamton University and a rising tennis star. She was the singles Northeast-10 Conference champion in October 2016, a former National Player, and ranked #1 in the Eastern Section for the 10’s, 12’s, 14’s, and 16’s age groups.
Tragically, on December 3, 2016, Stefani was killed in a hit-and-run accident, leaving a lasting legacy through her passion for tennis and dedication to inspiring others. The foundation continues her mission by empowering young athletes, especially women, to pursue their dreams in tennis and sports, providing opportunities, mentorship, and resources to help them thrive both on and off the court.
OUR INSPIRATION
Daniela Atanassova and Daniel Linev are the founders of the organization. Driven by their passion to honor the legacy of Stefani Lineva, beloved daughter and sister, and their shared love for tennis and sports, they created initiatives to provide underprivileged children—especially girls—with opportunities to play tennis. By collecting used and outfitted gear and clothing, they travel around the world to coach and mentor young athletes, inspiring confidence, discipline, and a love for the sport.
Their efforts have inspired other young National Tennis players from the USA to join them, establishing annual mission trips. The foundation focuses on countries in Central and South America, as well as Africa, with a mission to empower all children through tennis, while giving young women in particular the support and tools to pursue their dreams both on and off the court.
