Date posted: October 9, 2014
Kimse Yok Mu Foundation has launched workshops for vocational training next to the orphanage home to 570 children in the Kyrgyz capital Bishkek. A total of 80 students will receive vocational training on green housing, culinary, sewing and hairdressing. The students showed a high interest in the greenhouse built for them.
KYM deputy-general manager Levent Eyupoglu inaugurated the greenhouse. “Efforts for the orphan and needy need a new approach. It’s our duty to take care of the orphan. What we aim with this training workshop is to secure a profession for the orphan children. They have a tough life ahead. And in order to be able to hold on to life, they will be receiving training on various fields at weekends and holidays,” Eyupoglu said.
