“Road to School” Campaign

On August 24, 2025, a charity event “Road to School” was held at the Hesed Center in Shymkent.

On the eve of the new academic year, on August 24, the charity campaign “Road to School” took place at the Hesed Center in Shymkent. This event is held every year with the aim of preparing children from low-income and vulnerable families for school. The kids always look forward to the gifts, and the organizers provide them not only with the long-awaited presents, but also with exciting activities and wonderful moods!

This year we prepared four first-graders for school, who received new backpacks filled with all the necessary school supplies. Another 16 children received sets of stationery. Many members of the community participated in raising funds for the schoolchildren and showed care for their needs. Thanks to their support, the kids went off to school fully equipped and ready to gain new knowledge!

In addition to the long-awaited gifts, the organizers prepared a wonderful celebration for the children, filled with fun games, educational quests, friendly communication, and children’s laughter. Later, the young guests enjoyed a festive table with sweets baked by the mothers and juicy summer fruits. The children happily drank tea and shared their impressions with their friends. Such wonderful “farewell-to-summer” celebrations surely set the children up for successful studies.

We thank everyone who took part in organizing this celebration for the kids and contributed to purchasing gifts for our schoolchildren! With your help, they went to school with everything they needed and with the right positive attitude!
