An annual New year project «A letter to Santa Claus” has started in Almaty. Let us remind that in the frameworks of this project the charity foundation “AYALA” will set several Christmas trees in different offices that will be decorated with the envelopes containing letters from children. In these letters the children will tell what they would like to receive from Santa Claus. Every person will have a possibility to read these letters and buy a present or drop some money necessary for the present into the fund raising box. All presents will be bought to the morning frost and at the festive day the children will receive their presents from the hands of Santa Claus and Snow Maiden.
It is already known that this year the letters to kind magician will be written by pupils from the boarding schools #6 and #7 of Almaty city for children with intellectual development disorders and also by pupils of the boarding school #4 named after N. Ostrovsky for blind children and children who have vision disorders. The children from the fourth boarding school wrote their first wishes last Friday. In general, the children want to receive mobile phones, skates, electronic pads, drawing sets, sledges, etc. According to the words of the institution’s director Rakhmet Nurakhmetov, his team took part in such campaign for the first time. These are pupils from 1st to 8th forms. In total, there are 156 children. Each child accepted the news about project with high inspiration. The first letters will be sent to the office of the company Samsung Electronics Central Eurasia. The setting of Christmas trees will be held on 7th of December in 2015 and the festive day for children and gifts giving will be in the end of December.
