The “Alem” Programme, the purpose of which is to support young talents, continues searching for talented children throughout the whole territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. This time the west region is the center of events.

For this responsible mission a regular creative business trip of an employee of the “Saby” Charitable Foundation was organized to Atyrau oblast.

The familiarization with the “Alem” Program took place in seven educational institutions of Atyrau oblast. During the first day of the trip discussion were held with pupils and teachers from 2 schools of the Makhambet village.

The third day and the fourth one were geographically vaster. Children from Beibarys, Sarytogai, Saraichik and Aktogai were waiting for a meeting with our representative and showed high activity in their intention to participate in the Programme.

The main purpose of the trip was to find talented children from the depth of our country and, in our opinion, we have achieved that purpose: we are very interested in some potential participants of the “Alem” Programme and we do hope that experts of the “Alem” Programme will be able to confirm and develop their abilities.

According to the existing tradition of such trips, our representative has also visited the Mugedek Alemi Public Association – an organization sponsored by the “Saby” Charitable Foundation under the Project “Decent Life to Disabled Persons”. A briefing with Chairman of the society of the disabled persons has also been attended by an employee of the City Department of Employment and Social Protection of Population.

The trilateral discussion of functioning of the Invataxi Service included matters related to improvement of conditions for provision of social taxi services to disabled persons, including a matter regarding the necessity for increase in financing of the service from the municipal budget next year.
