Medical Check-Ups for Children in Uch-Terek and Bel-Aldy Aiyl Aimaks of Toktogul District
In remote villages, access to specialized medical services is often limited: to undergo an ultrasound examination, parents have to cover transportation costs to travel to the district center themselves or travel to Bishkek, incurring additional expenses for transport and accommodation.
Free mobile medical check-ups provided by Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic help reduce significant financial and logistical barriers for families. A powerful example of the project's real impact is the case of a child from Sary-Sogot village: doctors timely detected acute hepatic echinococcosis with a large liver cyst, which posed a life-threatening risk. The family was immediately advised to seek urgent specialized treatment and travelled to Bishkek for emergency surgical care.
Interview with a medical check-up participant:
Elnura Anarbekova, a resident of Sary-Sogot village:
"We have been collaborating with Good Neighbors for several years. Taking children for a medical examination somewhere far away — to Bishkek or even to the district center — often proves difficult for various reasons. We express our deep gratitude to Good Neighbors for bringing special equipment directly to our village and providing the opportunity to examine our young children and monitor their health. I believe that preventive medical check-ups are extremely important: we might not notice the symptoms of certain diseases in time, and if left untreated, it can lead to tragic consequences. Such examinations help us take care of our children's health, monitor it in advance, and prevent various diseases!"

On June 26, graduation ceremonies were held across the Kyrgyz Republic to celebrate students completing their secondary education. This special day marked the end of an important chapter in their lives and the beginning of a new journey filled with opportunities, hope, and future achievements.
School graduates from the Japalak Community Development Project (Japalak CDP) in Osh Region also celebrated this important milestone.

We warmly congratulate all graduates on this important achievement. May your future be filled with new knowledge, exciting opportunities, bold decisions, and the successful realization of your dreams. We wish you confidence, inspiration, and great success as you begin this new chapter of your lives.
On June 29, Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic conducted a one-day training for 80 school graduates from the Bolot Mambetov Area Development Program (ADP) in Kaji-Sai village, Issyk-Kul Region.
The training aimed to support young people during their transition into adulthood, help them make informed decisions about their future education and career paths, and strengthen their confidence in their own abilities.
The program began with an introductory session about the work of Good Neighbors and opportunities for future engagement with the organization. Participants then discussed personal and financial responsibility, safety, document processing, informed decision-making, and ways to protect themselves from potential risks.
Particular attention was given to planning for life after graduation. The participants explored opportunities for continuing their education, professional development, employment, goal setting, and making informed career choices. They also learned about youth activism and volunteerism, discussing how community engagement helps develop leadership skills and gain valuable experience.
During the practical session, participants strengthened their communication, self-presentation, and teamwork skills. They were also introduced to the idea of establishing the Good Neighbors Alumni Club, which will serve as a platform for networking, sharing experiences, and participating in community initiatives.
Throughout the day, the graduates took part in interactive activities, team-building exercises, and a themed quiz. The event concluded with the presentation of commemorative gifts and a group photo.
We sincerely wish all graduates confidence as they move toward their goals. May they embrace new opportunities, believe in themselves, and build a bright and successful future.
