Adopt a Babushka
To alleviate the impact of poverty on vulnerable elderly people in Kyrgyzstan, Babushka Adoption Foundation has set up a successful private sponsorship program providing monthly welfare cash transfers to the most vulnerable older people in Bishkek city and rural areas of Batken oblast.
As an important part of the sponsorship program, Babushka Adoption Foundation also works to establish a personal relationship between the elderly people and their sponsors, easing their feelings of loneliness and social exclusion. Babushka Adoption Foundation staff members translate letters, distribute presents from sponsors and even help sponsors to visit their babushka or dedushka.
