“Saby” Foundation starts an unprecedented programme – “Alem” - for support of young talents!
The purpose of “Alem” Programme is to support talented children, teenagers and young people who are, we’re sure, in great number in Kazakhstan. Unfortunately, such talented children not always have an opportunity to show their best qualities and abilities to those people, who can really assess a talent and give an advice how to develop and apply it. For that end our Foundation has assumed a responsible mission to support talented children who really need it.

Internet and a selected language of international communication allow us to apply to every young citizen of our country:

– Please, asset yourselves!
– Tell us about your talents!
– Show us your abilities!

Each inquiry will be accepted and considered attentively. Your abilities and skills will be assessed by the best specialists in relevant spheres. Opinions of professionals will allow us to find the most talented people, for whom we will do everything in order to develop their best qualities and direct them in a right way. Today, contribution of professional efforts to support of the younger generation is one of possibilities to make a significant contribution to our common future!

Detailed information is available at www.eng.alemthebig.kz – a new, modern portal for young people specially designed by our Foundation for the purpose of full-scale carrying-out of “Alem” Programme.

Specialists will help children in choosing their professions

By | Project "Education"

Specialists will help children in choosing their professions
The beginning of a school year represents continuation of the Educational Project of the “Saby” Foundation and, as a consequence, a traditional annual occupational testing of future graduates of sponsored orphanages.

Young boys and girls will pass computer testing on the base of Almaty branch of the professional orientation department of the Moscow State University named after Lomonosov. Based on the results of answers children may determine what profession will be the most interesting and useful for them in the future.

In the course of lessons conducted with pupils and graduates a specially developed programme is used in the Center. Results obtained in the process of diagnostics are represented in the form of diagrams, graphics and detailed text interpretations for all test indicators.

For this school year the “Saby” Foundation has planned two stages of professional testing: in the next few days experienced specialists are going to help children in choosing a general direction in a profession, and in February 2011 it is planned to determine a profile class, higher or secondary special educational institution.

Thus, by spring 2011 children will probably have known what professions as well as what institutes and colleges will be suitable for them best of all, and they will also be able to understand the world of existing professions and know well themselves and their individual psychological qualities.

A training class for rehabilitation of postapoplectic patients will be organized in INSO-2

By | Medical Project

A training class for rehabilitation of postapoplectic patients will be organized in INSO-2 The work with INSO-2, a city clinical hospital No 7 sponsored by our foundation is in progress. At the present time we are equipping a special training class for rehabilitation of postapoplectic patients where experienced specialists will conduct training courses both with patients and with their relatives who faced heavy living circumstances.

Our experience shows that postapoplectic patients and their relatives are always confused and psychologically depressed. In case of a timely rendered medical assistance and competently arranged rehabilitation the prognosis of restoration after illness may be positive, and the work with patients at home after their discharge from hospital is the most important aspect for successful restoration.

Training of patients and their relatives before discharge from hospital for basic elements of after-care was adopted in developed countries many years ago and currently performed successfully. Opening of such training class in the hospital of Almaty will become an important step in adoption of a new humane principle of medical service rendering.

Implementation of this idea became possible due to our long standing partner “Otan” Pension Fund.

Saby Charitable Foundation announces the beginning of preparatory works on erection of a new modern building of an Orphanage in Kyzylorda city

By | “Orkendeu” Project

Saby Charitable Foundation announces the beginning of preparatory works on erection of a new modern building of an Orphanage in Kyzylorda city for 60 children – from infants to 6 years old.

Heavy climatic conditions, a zone of ecological catastrophe of the Aral Sea, constant deficit of potable water and, as a consequence, a low level of living conditions and health of local population, especially of children, – all these aspects induce our Foundation to pay special attention to the region.

An Orphanage located in the regional center at: 84 Baiseitova Street, is one of the most technically unsafe social institutions of the city. It is a morally and physically obsolete frame-reed fiber construction built in 1956. Employees of the institution lime and patch the walls with clay but it does not prevent them from regular leakages and partial breakages. Window frames painted for many times have cracked and do not protect against winter frosts and summer hot. A centralized heating system is absent – the building is heated by means of a dilapidated boiler room and rusty decayed tubes. Children are living in such difficult and terrible conditions: they start here their difficult lives without support of parents and relatives.

Having inspected the institution the Saby Charitable Foundation made a conclusion that it was necessary to demolish a construction and erect a new building corresponding to technical and sanitary requirements of modern construction, with all appropriate premises: cozy bedrooms, spacious game rooms, light dining rooms, equipped sanitary facilities, medical rooms and training classes. It is also necessary to accommodate information adjacent territory as open-air walks are very important for formation of healthy lifestyle of children.

We refer to our friends and partners as well as to all benefactors and ask them to show delicacy and understanding and to render possible aid in making the construction. Any support is very important for us!

Best regards, Saby Foundation
