Today, on the International Children’s Day, more than a thousand children from Jeti-Oguz and Ton regions as well as Balykchy and Karakol towns of Issyk-Kul oblast have received gifts from Kumtor Gold Company. Traditional congratulations have been extended to children from orphanages and rehabilitation centers of Issyk-Kul oblast, low-income families and children with disabilities. The amount allocated by the company totaled about KGS 500,000.
The gifts were presented to the fosterlings of the Blind and Deaf Association, orphanage “Children of Tien Shan,” public association “Society of Disabled Children,” youth organization “El Birimdigi” and children’s center “Bilimstan.” Part of the funds allocated by the company was channeled to festive events to be held in the regions. More than two hundred children will attend regional celebrations organized by akimiats of Jeti-Oguz and Ton regions, where representatives of Kumtor will present the gifts to the children on behalf of the company.
The company’s employees joined the congratulations, having fulfilled about 80 requests for children’s gifts. They prepared individual gift sets taking into account the age and sex of children and filled them up with stationery, books, personal-care products, clothing and toys. Each box also included puzzles with pictures of animals living in the territory of our country and an interactive map of Kyrgyzstan, which had been made by the Public Foundation “Bugu Ene” with the support of Kumtor Gold Company.
