Kazakhstan's Clean Kazakhstan campaign is ongoing, focusing on landscaping yards nationwide, as reported by the Ministry of Ecology, Geology, and Natural Resources
The fourth week of the Taza Kazakhstan campaign wrapped up with nearly 800 events dedicated to cleaning and landscaping yards for elderly individuals, veterans, orphanages, and nursing homes. The initiative assisted 2,308 elderly people across all regions of Kazakhstan, according to the Ministry of Culture and Information.
In Astana, a clean-up initiative received support at the secondary school of Svetoch orphanage house. Vasily Levit, the head of the Department of Physical Culture and Sports of Astana, professional boxer and Olympic champion Daniyar Yeleussinov, and world weightlifting champion Edyge Yemberdi participated. Together, they cleaned the yard, removed garbage, swept the entrance territory, cleared overgrown grass, and prepared the ground for planting flowers.
“We wanted to contribute to a meaningful environmental campaign. After consulting with colleagues, we arrived at the Svetoch orphanage house in the suburbs of Astana. There are 19 children currently being raised in this orphanage”, said Levit.
“When we assist elderly people and children in difficult situations, we do something important not only for them but for ourselves too. We hope that we were able to lift their spirits. The joy in the eyes of the children was the best gratitude for us,” said Yeleussinov.(Source:astanatimes)
