A chance to stay a child

Uralsk 13.02.2007

Ann is 14 years old. She lives in small Western-Kazakhstan city Uralsk. Circles and holidays in Hesed Ann attends seldom. Unfortunately, the girl is compelled on day off to nurse children, something to earn on a feed.

Ann's mother is the invalid of 2 group. Sometimes earns additionally, cleaning another's apartments and offices. But even more often, she does not work. Health does not allow. The father Ann almost does not remember. He does not help the former family, and where he is now, is not known. The senior brother of Ann the last year has got in accident (went on a bicycle in college for classes), and he was knocked down by car), long laid in traumatology, now draws up invalidity.

Family has debts only for heating 200.000 tenge. In 2004 they already had decision of court on eviction, but that time them has rescued Joint. The American distribution committee, allocated to family 500 $ under the program "Children's SOS".

Due to the regular help of charitable Jewish organization, Ann began attending circles. In the summer the girl went with other children from Hesed in country camp. Ann is happy, that at her the chance appeared to be not only - a support of family, but, and even on some hours in a month to become the usual child to be engaged in a choreography, drawing and just, to communicate with coevals.
