This year marks the fourth anniversary of the foundation of the Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care named after Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov. Despite the not very significant period of activity, the leaders, specialists and employees of the foundation have managed to achieve significant success during this time, making a huge contribution to strengthening the health of the population.
In general, as a result of the successful implementation of large-scale reforms in the healthcare system initiated by Hero Arkadag and currently ongoing under the leadership of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, strengthening the health of the younger generation, harmonious development of youth, strengthening the principles of a healthy lifestyle in society in the country have been identified as the most important tasks of our time.
Currently, in accordance with the State Program «Saglyk», developed thanks to the efforts of Hero Arkadag, the state pays special attention to the harmonious development of children, their healthy growth. This clearly shows that human health is a priority in our country. In this regard, Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care named after Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov plays an important role in the formation of a healthy young generation.
President Serdar Berdimuhamedov provides ongoing support to the foundation's activities, including the promotion of the principles of humanism, justice and goodwill, and the development of charitable activities. In the new historical epoch, the ancient traditions of the Turkmen people find vivid expression in the current humanitarian policy of the state.
Since time immemorial, the mentality of the Turkmen people has been based on commitment to the principles of humanism. The basis of the national mentality is such original noble principles as the desire to do good and mutual assistance. In the modern epoch, they are embodied in a set of legal guarantees for ensuring and protecting the legitimate interests of the child, as well as in a system of economic measures and targeted actions aimed at adapting orphans to society and preparing them for independent life.
As you know, the headquarters of the Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care named after Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov is located in the city of Arkadag. The Foundation carries out large-scale effective work, constantly developing, finding new forms and methods of work to help children. Over the past time, the organisation has become a real symbol of mercy for sick children and their relatives.
The Foundation also carries out a lot of work at the international level. Thus, humanitarian aid was sent to children from Türkiye, Ukraine, the Russian Federation, Afghanistan, Tajikistan and Palestine who suffered from disasters.
It was noted that students of a school built by Turkmenistan in the Khatlon region of Tajikistan were given computers at the expense of the fund, and baby food produced by the medical cluster was sent to Afghanistan.
The heads of the Children's Health and Rehabilitation Centre named after Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, located in the city of Arkadag, are also considering issues related to the further implementation of the fund's activities at a high level today.
The duties of each doctor working at the Centre are clearly defined in the team and, thanks to joint efforts, are successfully fulfilled. Specialists attach great importance to the comprehensive development of children and the full restoration of their health. Young patients who underwent surgery with the support of the Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care named after Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov receive proper rehabilitation here.
Doctors working in the departments of the Centre, which meet modern requirements and high international standards, proudly note that all the necessary conditions for the speedy recovery and rehabilitation of children have been created here. The medical services provided at the Centre are comprehensive, which is considered the main criterion for the recovery of young patients.
A reliable base has been created in the medical building of the Centre for providing medical care to children in need of care, restoring their health and providing them with the necessary medicines. It should be added that the medical specialists working here have been trained in the leading clinical centres of the world, thereby improving their qualifications.
The National Leader of the Turkmen people Hero-Arkadag noted in his speeches that the Turkmen people have long-standing humanistic traditions of surrounding a child with comprehensive care and love. This is confirmed by the fact that the fund not only finances expensive operations for children, but also facilitates the acquisition of foreign medical and diagnostic equipment, and provides financial assistance to orphanages and boarding schools.
In addition, one of the foundation's main missions is to provide comprehensive support to children in difficult life situations, especially those left without parental care. The organisation undertakes to finance their treatment and rehabilitation, and also assists in organising their recreation, leisure and education.
Another important area of the foundation's activity is providing humanitarian aid to residents of countries affected by natural disasters. At one time, humanitarian caravans were sent to the earthquake-ravaged regions of Türkiye, to the Primorsky Territory of Russia, which was subjected to flooding, as well as to Afghanistan and Palestine.
The foundation's specialists are deeply aware that today's care for children is care for the bright future of the state. And providing assistance is a vivid example of the significant role of the Charity Foundation founded by Hero Arkadag in the development and strengthening of friendly relations between countries.
