Dear friends!

 

To everyone who responded to our fundraising appeal in support of Uzgen landslide victims - we express our sincere gratitude. We thank each contributor including generous anonymous contributors, who sent money to help the Korgonbaev family from Ayu-Sai village in Uzgen region to rebuild their house.

 

We thank each one of you additionally for every "like", "repost" and "share" and your comments.

 

The latest update: we are closing the fundraising effort as of end July 2017 in response to the latest encouraging news.

 

In addition to the Kyrgyz government relocation and resettlement Programme of the affected families, Kyrgyzstan received help from the Turkish government.

 

Turkish International Cooperation and Development Agency (TICA) under the Turkish Prime Minister's office has provided funds to rebuild houses for Uzgen landslide victims in April 2017 and at the end of July added the Korgonbaev family to its list as one of the most affected families in the landslide.

 

Herebelow a report of received funds during our appeal during 9-27 July.

International Public Foundation "Roza Otunbayeva Initiative" is now stopping its appeal despite not having reached the target due to availability of alternative funds committed to this cause.

 

We are willing to return the raised funds to benefactors. That said, with your agreement, we propose to use the raised funds toward pre-school developmental and maternal education needs for newly resettled families.

 

We await your feedback.
