We are two American-born Kazakh high schoolers who decided to form this organization after noticing that kids in these horrid socioeconomic conditions don't have the same opportunities and access to a good education or supplies like we do in the United States. We felt a sense of duty to do something impactful given that we are also Kazakh and that these are our people. Especially with the pandemic, these problems only have worsened and we hope to alleviate some of these problems and make things more accessible for them.
Our mission at Kazakh Children's Support Group (KCSG) is to help Kazakh kids who are living in unhealthy environments. We aim to improve their quality of life and give them the opportunities necessary to find a future career and succeed.
We plan to supply kids living in unhealthy environments with items they may not have access to and provide them with supplies. We also plan to provide them with an English Curriculum (alternating between oral lessons and writing lessons twice a week -- Check the 'About Our Courses' section for more information on our courses). We will be extending into more American-based courses soon!
We plan on giving used items (For example: toys, books, clothing, working technology, etc) to the kids. If you would like to help, you can donate your used items to us! Please contact us first at kcsgorganization@gmail.com. When contacting us if you're going to donate an item, please provide an image of the item you are willing to send or provide a useful description of the item! (We prefer items that are in good condition). From there, we will send you the addresses via email to our headquarters (We have one in New York and one in Nursultan, Kazakhstan!) and you may send out your supplies to one of these locations.
You can also donate to us! (We will be using the money raised to buy supplies for the kids.)

For donations to the United States (USD): Venmo/Paypal - @kcsgorganization
Lastly, if you'd like to do more, you can volunteer to teach for our English courses! Please contact us at kcsgorganization@gmail.com to let us know what course you'd like to teach (you can volunteer for one of them or both if you'd like!) and we will move from there. All help is greatly appreciated!
