The company expressed its hope that this equipment will have a positive impact on the recovery of the rehabilitation center's patients.

“The center is visited by residents from all over Atyrau Oblast, and we hope that our support will have a positive impact on the quick recovery of visitors.

Over the years, the company has allocated $2.6 billion for the implementation of socially significant projects.”, - said Asset Kurmanbayev, TCO Legal Department General Manager.

It should be noted that this year the patients of the rehabilitation center also attended hippotherapy classes at “Atyrau. Small country” Public Fund. In 2022, the fund received financial support under TCO Community Investments Program. As the Head of “Atyrau. Small country” Yerlan Kumiskaliyev notes the patients are making significant progress. Moreover, 2 patients of the rehabilitation center who attended hippotherapy sessions in 2022 won gold and silver medals at the Kazakhstan Para Equestrian Tournament.
