Kazakhstan Khalkyna fund to increase assistance for flood victims to 10 billion tenge

In response to the scale of the flooding and its consequences, the Kazakhstan Khalkyna fund decided to double its assistance for those affected by the disaster, increasing the amount to 10 billion tenge. These funds are planned to be used for housing construction. The fund has been accepting donations from Kazakh citizens since April 1. Almost a billion tenge has already been collected, which will also be allocated for housing construction projects. Over 430 new housing units will be constructed in total.

“The fund has reserves of 10 billion tenge for such emergency situations. Apart from this, all donations from indifferent people seeking to assist the flood victims will also be utilized. Around one billion tenge, collected within nine days, is expected to increase by April 30,” said Kazakhstan Khalkyna Fund’s Official Spokesperson Marat Mukhamedsaliyev.
