Evening of May, 15, despite all weather forecasts was rather warm. The weather is, apparently, "favourable" towards our fund. As well as on the day of Nauryz celebration in children’s sanatorium №2, despite all pessimistic predictions of weather forecasters, the weather was simply remarkable.

Guests gathered outside the remarkable restaurant complex "Palladium court ", listened to live music, walked around the exhibition of pictures in the open air, which could be purchased and appeased evening hunger. Evening dresses of ladies, smart suits of their companions. Ordinary social event? Not! The eveningwas organised to collect money for the most modern apparatus for the reanimation unit of children's hospitals of our city.

Alpysbay Kazygulov is a talented artist well-known even outside Kazakhstan. His works were displayed in Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands and Russia. Alpysbay understands the problems of the Kazakhstan health care system, he gave his canvases to the fund and the money collected from the sale will be spent on new equipment for intensice care units of the children`s hospitals.

Fanfares signaled the beginning of the official part. An action began. An evening presenter entered, children's choir  "Yelim Ai”, our opera "diva" Sara Naiman, charming anchorman of the evening Sagnai Abdullin, representatives of a hospital, the most generous "donors" award, string quartet "Infinity", photo shoots,  great number of kind words, video film about activity of the fund, pictures of donationsto the glass boxes, meeting of old partners and friends in corridors, interviews, people taking away pictures with them, Sagnai again, speech of the "department of health care protection", rewarding the partners, anchorman, departure of "early little birds" and arrival of the belated guests, ubiquitous photographers and operators again, Aplysbai Kazygulov, stammering from agitation, enchanting appearance and fiery one-hour concert of Larissa Dolina, continuous specks of light of photo shoots, again "Infinity", the closing speech by the hostess of the evening, president of "AYALA" charity foundation Aidan Suleimenova.

This is about the evening in brief. But…

The great number of people wholiked the idea of charity appeared, the idea of creating goodness.

We understood that OUR city, our people, our compatriots are ready to help the indigent, and especiallychildren with grave diseases. They simply have no time to look around and ask "To whom and how can I help"? The question our fund has already found an answer to. We are already helping.

With appearance of three up-to-date artificial ventilation machines for the lungs in the reanimation unit of the children's infectious hospital doctors will not have a difficult question "Who of seriously sick children WILL breathe?"

And predominantly, the president of the benevolent foundation “AYALA" Aidan Suleimenova offered the representatives of all benevolent funds of the Republic of Kazakhstan to found a national REWARD in the field of charity with such categories as "the most generous", “the kindest”, “the most permanent", "the best"! The award was offered to be named as - "With all our heart"!
