We visited Savva orphanage on the last day of winter. The kids greeted us with a lot of hugs and much love as usual. The goal of Youth Impact Department this time was to talk to the graduates about their plans after they leave Savva. Some of them are really worried about their future and our goal is to help them make good choices. Most of the girls plan to go to PTL (vocational school) to study cooking, hair-dressing or sewing. We offered them other options for consideration such us going to college and become teachers or medical workers. Some of them started thinking about that because before they thought that they have no choice. Of course, when giving this information we take into account their level of education and abilities. When I talked to one of the boys about his future career he told me that he is going to a vocational school in Chu but after that he plans to go to college to be a fire fighter as his father. One of the girls said that her dream is to be a soccer coach but she is going to PTL in Taraz first. Another girl said that she really likes cooking and she is happy that this is what she will study in Taraz. We believe that every graduate should find a profession that they like and we are helping them to realize that.
