In October 2026, as part of the «Rukhani-Adamgershilik Tarbie» (Spiritual and Moral Education) programme, first-year students majoring in Russian Philology from the Department of Russian Philology and World Literature, under the guidance of their academic advisor, Dinara Kairatkyzy, visited the «Ziyalylar» Public Foundation, a day care centre for elderly people with somatic diseases.

The visit took place during the centre's «Elegant Age» Month and aimed to support older people while fostering kindness, compassion, respect for the elderly and social responsibility among students.

The students prepared a special festive programme for the centre's visitors. They recited poems, organized entertaining games and competitions, and performed songs accompanied by the guitar. One of the highlights of the visit was a shared tea gathering, which created a warm, welcoming atmosphere and provided an opportunity for friendly conversation.

The event took place in an exceptionally warm and heartfelt atmosphere. The elderly participants enthusiastically joined the activities, smiled, sang along with the students and sincerely thanked their young guests for their attention, care and positive emotions.

One of the most touching aspects of the meeting was that it deeply affected not only the elderly participants but also the students themselves. Personal conversations, the life stories shared by the elderly and their heartfelt gratitude made a profound emotional impression on the first-year students. Some of them were moved to tears. The experience allowed the students to gain a deeper understanding of the value of human connection, attention and simple acts of kindness.

Such events have significant educational value, as they encourage young people not only to speak about moral values but also to put them into practice. Caring for the older generation, respecting their life experience, giving them one's time and sharing warmth and kindness are essential elements in the spiritual and moral development of an individual.

The charity event achieved its objectives and contributed to the development of students' moral values, empathy, compassion and respect for the older generation. The meeting became a meaningful experience for both the centre's visitors and the students themselves, reminding everyone that sometimes the most valuable gifts we can offer another person are our time, attention and genuine human warmth.
