The “Breathe, baby”, “Health of the nation begins with a maternity hospital”, “I also want to live” projects have helped health workers to reduce child mortality - one of the most important indicators of the work and development of the country as a whole.

Tournament organizers have decided to make this format event annual. Now, a charity calendar of our country has a new date.

Chief physician of maternity hospital №2 in Almaty Temirkhan Batyrhanovich DZHENALAEV said: "Our maternity hospital in its time received the equipment within the "Breathe, baby" project and is very pleased that the "AYALA" charity foundation is not limited to one-time actions. Its work in the field of health is always effective and the most important evidence of this are the hundreds of rescued babies. The “Breathe new life” project in my opinion will help to raise the level of care to a higher level".

General Director of the LCB Partners company Bota TULENOVA said: "We have long been familiar with the "AYALA" charity foundation. Our company has more than once been involved in the foundation’s project. We were looking for a new tool that would help raise money for one of the projects of the foundation, so the LCB Partners company helped to organize the today's tournament. We probably would not have done this deed, if not seen the real results of the "AYALA" foundation.

"The event to raise money in that format our fund has not yet conducted. It is hoped that the tournament became another link in the chain of development of tradition and culture of philanthropy in our country. Precisely in this we see the main mission of our foundation", - said vice-president of the "AYALA" charity foundation Zhangeldy SARSENOV.
