On September 5, 2025, a special event was held in Shymkent as part of the nationwide environmental campaign "Clean Kazakhstan". On this day, young volunteers went to the courtyards of apartment buildings located on Turkestan Street and organized cleaning work.

Maintaining a clean environment is a shared responsibility not only of government agencies, but of the entire society. Understanding this, the city's youth demonstrated their civic activism, cleaning the yards of apartment buildings from garbage and helping to put green areas in order.

About 30 active young people took part in the good deed. They put on gloves, took out garbage bags and started cleaning the yards from the morning. The young people collected plastic bottles and paper waste, as well as household garbage. In addition, they cut down broken branches from trees and bushes and tidied up the grass.

This event was supported not only by young people, but also by the residents of the yard. Many parents themselves joined the youth in the Sabbath to set an example for their children. Such events create a sense of shared responsibility in society.

The formation of an ecological culture, calling on residents to protect nature is one of the main goals of the "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign. Systematic work is being carried out in this direction in Shymkent. The participation of young people is a contribution to the revival of this initiative.

Cleanliness activities are not limited to garbage collection. Through these actions, society is made aware of the importance of environmental protection and the responsibility of each person to nature. The activity of young people will make a great contribution to creating a clean and comfortable city in the future.

One of the volunteers who participated in the campaign, a student named Aidana, said:
"Protecting nature is our duty. Today, I think we not only collected garbage, but also set an example for others. If everyone kept their yard clean, our city would be more beautiful," he said.

Another active young volunteer named Yerzhan:
"Sometimes people throw garbage anywhere. We wanted to show with our actions that such actions are wrong. Taking care of the environment is an investment in the future ," he shared his thoughts.

Representatives of the older generation who witnessed the action expressed their gratitude to the young people. A resident of Turkestan Street, pensioner Aliya Apay:
"We are glad that young people are actively involved in such good deeds. This increases our confidence in the future. If adults and young people worked together, the doors of our city would open up ," he said.

Today, the environmental situation is one of the most pressing issues in the world and in our country. The well-being and comfort of a city depends on the attitude of residents to cleanliness. Maintaining cleanliness is a guarantee of health. If garbage is not collected properly, it can not only harm the environment, but also cause the spread of various diseases.

That is why the "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign is not just a Saturday, it is a large public movement that raises the environmental awareness of the population and encourages them to treat nature with compassion.

According to the organizers, such Saturdays will continue on a regular basis. With the participation of young people, cleaning activities will be held in other districts of the city. In addition, there are plans to organize environmental lectures and educational meetings.

This initiative aims to attract more schoolchildren and students, because only if environmental culture is formed from childhood can it be maintained throughout life.

The "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign, held on September 5, 2025, was a vivid example of youth activism and social responsibility. The courtyards of Turkestan Street were cleaned, bringing a positive mood to residents.

The involvement of young people in such a good cause made every resident of the city think and reminded them of the importance of protecting nature. Residents expressed their gratitude to the volunteers who contributed to the realization of the saying "A clean city is a happy society."

The main conclusion from this event is that there is no need to wait for a big event to take care of nature. It is enough for every citizen to start from their own yard, from their own street. If we continue the initiative of young people and all residents participate in protecting nature, both Shymkent and our country will be brighter and cleaner.
