Today, on October 25, 2023, at the hospital school of the National Center for Maternal and Child Health, the renowned TV and radio presenter Aigul Kurmanova, one of Kyrgyzstan's most beloved and recognizable voices, read a heartwarming fairy tale published by our Foundation to the children.

 

Both the reading session and the interaction with the guest brought immense joy and happiness to the young patients. After the reading, Aigul shared insights on how reading books influences the development of one's perspective, the formation of personal opinions, and the ability to empathize.

 

Despite their conditions, the children undergoing treatment in the Oncology Department continue their studies, engage in crafts, and enjoy artistic activities. We want to highlight the dedicated work of the teachers at the hospital school, appreciating their professionalism and kindness. Parents of the young patients expressed their gratitude for the opportunity given to their children to listen to a fairy tale, socialize, feel love and care, and enrich their hospital experience.

 

As part of the event, the Roza Otunbaeva Initiative Foundation gifted the children with children's books, board games, and a fruit basket, bringing additional joy and positivity to the young patients.

 

The mission of "Celebrities Read to Children" remains steadfast – to increase the number of adults who read to children. Reading not only introduces children to the enchanting world of books but also nurtures their love for reading.

 

Books serve as portals to a vast realm of adventure, experience, transformation, discovery, wonder, kindness, friendship, loyalty, and courage.

 

The Roza Otunbaeva Initiative Foundation urges all adults to join this noble mission and read to children. Together, we can illuminate the world and make it a better place.
