On December 5 in Almaty the New Year Campaign “The New Year Tree of Wishes” has commenced. 46 foster-children from the family orphan home “Nur” located in Talgar town, Almaty region, will become the charity recipients thereof. Any non-indifferent citizen of Kazakhstan may take part in the campaign.

The smallest foster-child is just two years old, the eldest is 17. They, just like many other children, write letters to Father Frost, some of them do not believe already in the fairy-tale daddy, but still they hope that their wishes will come true. The purpose of the campaign is to pay attention to the children, who due to difficult life situation, feel the deficit thereof in these days. The essence of the “New Year Tree of Wishes” campaign is simple – children tell about their New Year wishes, and voluntary participants of the campaign, having learnt about their wishes from mass media, make presents to children. As the organizers thing together with the presents, the children will get the feeling of confidence in themselves and safety.

 

— For several successive years already on the threshold of the New Year Holiday “Almaty Marathon” arranges the charitable campaign – “The New Year Tree of Wishes”. Traditionally a large decorated fir-tree is installed in the fitness-club World Class Almaty and besides the decorations the photos of children with their New Year wishes are placed on the tree, and any non-indifferent people can make their wishes to come true. All children are from the socially vulnerable people segments, they need the elementary things, that is why a New Year present and your attention is some kind of magic for them, — told Saltanat Kazybayeva, the Director of “Almaty Marathon”.

This year several organizations got together to arrange this campaign – “Almaty Marathon”, Scientific and Educational Fund named after the Academician Sh. Yesenov, Information Internet Portal Tengrinews.kz and World Class Almaty. The essence of the campaign is simple: children tell their wishes, and non-indifferent Kazakhstanis, coming to know their wishes from mass media, make presents to the children. 

 — I am an orphan too, and I know what it means to live without parents. That is why 19 years ago my husband and I decided to establish an orphan home. Since that time we brought up 700 children. We do not get financing from the state, mainly sponsors help us. And we are very grateful that the guys came and asked the kids themselves what they would like to get from Father Frost. We can provide our children with elementary things, and their demands are rather modest. I am sure that kind people will rise to the call and the kids will get their presents. But our largest trouble is the condition of our building, it needs refurbishment. We sincerely hope that owing to this campaign we will attract the sponsor’s attention and they will help us to resolve this problem, — expressed the hope the 73-year old Director of the Orphan Home “Nur” Tuyak Yeskozhina.

It is very important for children to feel care for entire life, but particularly on the holidays, in the psychologists’ opinion, they need such care most of all, especially the children growing without parents. 

 — The children, who get into the orphan home, always have mental trauma caused by betrayal and rejection. And it does not matter whether the mother abandoned a child or his/her parents died. Every New Year holiday for such small human being is the hope for commencement of something good, this holiday for him/her is the belief in the miracle. First of all is admission of a child as a person by his/her parents, and if he/she has no parents, by other people substituting them. That is why this holiday for him/her is even more special and important than for the children living in families, — commented the campaign the analytical psychologist, the member of CIS Professional Psychotherapeutic League Aigul Sadykova.
