Employees of the Shymkent Department of Emergency Situations participated in a mass cleanup as part of the "30 Years – 30 Good Deeds" campaign. 06.09.2025
On September 6, 2025, employees of the Shymkent Department of Emergency Situations participated in a mass cleanup as part of the "30 Years – 30 Good Deeds" campaign. Their goal was not only to clean up the area but also to foster environmental awareness among residents and make a personal contribution to the improvement of the city. This event is timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. The organizers emphasize that the anniversary is not just a celebratory occasion, but an opportunity for tangible initiatives that benefit society. The "30 Years – 30 Good Deeds" project is conceived as a series of events that will take place throughout the anniversary year. These charitable, environmental, social, and educational initiatives aim to demonstrate the active civic role of rescuers and remind everyone that their work involves more than just responding to emergency situations. On September 6, employees of the Shymkent Department of Emergency Situations demonstrated by personal example that caring for the city's cleanliness is everyone's responsibility. By morning, hundreds of department employees had gathered at pre-designated locations. Everyone was provided with the necessary equipment—garbage bags, rakes, shovels, and gloves. During the work they: cleared streets and sidewalks of household waste and fallen leaves; cleared ditches and canals to allow water to flow freely; improved park areas, collected dry branches and garbage; They whitewashed the trees and trimmed the bushes. As a result, dozens of cubic meters of waste were collected and removed within a few hours. Many areas of the city were noticeably transformed. Emergency Department staff note that such events strengthen team spirit and help them feel a sense of belonging to the city's life. Colonel Erlan Makhanov emphasized: "Emergency response isn't just about dealing with accidents and fires. We're always there for people. Today, we came out to clean up to show that everyone can contribute to cleanliness and order." Young specialist Aigerim Kalmuratova added: "Today's event made me think: the environment is our shared future. If everyone takes care of the city and nature, there will be fewer emergencies. I'm pleased to be part of such initiatives." The Shymkent Department of Emergency Situations leadership assured that the cleanup event will not be limited to a cleanup day. Dozens of other events are planned: providing assistance to low-income families and veterans; conducting open lessons on safety rules in schools; organization of sports competitions and charity marathons; tree planting and environmental campaigns. The main message is that goodness should be systemic and constant, not one-time. The cleanliness of the metropolis directly depends on every resident. According to the Emergency Situations Department, the cleanup day is not only a waste collection event but also a way to raise awareness of environmental issues. Shymkent is one of the largest cities in the country, and tons of waste are generated here daily. If every resident observed basic rules—not throwing trash past the trash bin, maintaining their yard, and preserving green spaces—the city's appearance would be radically transformed. The city's residents enthusiastically welcomed the rescuers' initiative. Many joined the cleanup, from schoolchildren to pensioners. Honored teacher Gүlmira Tөlegenқызы noted: "We're always used to seeing rescuers in uniform when they're putting out fires or helping people in disasters. Today, they came out simply as citizens—and that's wonderful. Young people should follow their example." For children, participation in the event became a real lesson in caring for nature. The 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations is an important milestone not only for its employees but for society as a whole. Over the years, thousands of specialists have saved millions of lives, fighting fires, floods, and accidents. Celebrating the anniversary with meaningful activities is a symbolic decision. It reminds us that the agency's strength lies not only in its professionalism, but also in its civic engagement and willingness to stand with the people in times of peace. The cleanup day in Shymkent was one of the highlights of the "30 Years – 30 Good Deeds" campaign. It demonstrated that caring for the city is a shared responsibility, and that environmental sustainability and cleanliness directly depend on the commitment of each resident. Emergency Situations Department staff have proven that being a rescuer means not only fighting emergencies but also preventing them by fostering a culture of safety and environmental behavior.
Employees of the Shymkent City Emergency Department went on a mass sabbatical as part of the "30 Years - 30 Good Deeds" campaign 06.09.2025
On September 6, 2025, employees of the Emergency Situations Department (ESD) of Shymkent took part in a mass clean-up drive as part of the “30 Years – 30 Good Deeds” campaign, contributing to the cleanliness and beauty of the city. This initiative was organized to mark the 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and aimed to celebrate the anniversary not only as a holiday, but also through concrete actions that benefit society. "30 years - 30 good deeds" is a good initiative that lasts not for one day, but all year round. Within its framework, various charitable, social and environmental events are organized. Emergency workers not only provide assistance in emergency situations, but also pay special attention to increasing the environmental culture of society and widely promoting the concept of nature protection among the population. The Sabbath on September 6 was a vivid manifestation of these good deeds. As cleaning efforts are underway in every district of Shymkent, the Emergency Situations Department team was not left out of this initiative. Hundreds of employees were mobilized for the weekend, and they were given special garbage bags and tools. During work: streets and pedestrian paths were cleared; The ditches were cleared of debris; Dead leaves were collected from parks and flower beds; The bases of the trees were whitewashed and the lawns were tended to. Thus, in one day, several tons of household waste were removed, significantly cleaning the city streets. According to TJD employees who participated in the Sabbilyk, such events strengthen their ties with the community and increase their sense of patriotism. Colonel Yerlan Mahanov : "An emergency worker is not just about putting out fires or providing assistance in times of disaster. We are always with the people. Today's Sabbath is proof of that. Keeping the city clean is the duty of every citizen," he said. And young specialist Aigerim Kalmuratova shared her impressions: "By participating in today's event, I once again felt how important it is to protect nature. The city is our home, and keeping it clean is a common responsibility." The TJD team is planning to hold other charitable events throughout the year, not limited to Shabbat. Among them are: providing assistance to low-income families; giving lectures on fire safety and emergency procedures in schools; participation in sports competitions and charity marathons; Conduct tree planting campaigns to prevent natural disasters. These initiatives will be implemented with the active participation of not only emergency services personnel, but also city residents. Shymkent is one of the largest megacities in the country. In a city with more than a million inhabitants, the issue of cleanliness is always relevant. Senbilik is not just a garbage collection, but, first of all, an event aimed at raising the environmental awareness of residents. Representatives of the Emergency Situations Department called on city residents to maintain cleanliness not only on Saturdays, but also in everyday life. If every citizen did not throw garbage on the streets and kept his own yard clean, the city would change significantly. During the event, local residents also joined the emergency services and showed their support. Children picked up trash with their parents, learning the importance of protecting nature from a young age. Pensioner Saule Apay said: "Today, we were especially happy to see the emergency services employees themselves taking to the streets and contributing to the cleanliness. This will serve as an example for young people." The 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations is a celebration not only for the state body, but also for the entire society. During this time, the Ministry of Emergency Situations has saved thousands of lives and worked tirelessly for the security of the country. Celebrating the anniversary with such socially significant events is a sign of true patriotism. Every good deed creates a warm feeling in the hearts of the people and contributes to the development of society. The Saturday event as part of the "30 Years - 30 Good Deeds" campaign not only made the city of Shymkent more beautiful and cleaner, but also contributed to the increase in the environmental culture of residents. This initiative is not just a celebration of the anniversary, but a vivid example of proving it with concrete actions. Such charitable deeds of the Emergency Situations Department employees give impetus to society, encouraging every citizen to protect nature and love their city.
Employees of various departments of the city of Shymkent are actively participating in the city cleanup day 06.09.2025
On September 6, 2025, another cleanup day was held in the Nurshuak residential complex on Shubarkydyk Street. Employees from various departments, as well as local residents, actively participated in the event. Together, they cleared residential areas, roadsides, and irrigation ditches of household waste. The main goal of the cleanup day is to preserve the environment, restore sanitary order in the district, and create comfortable conditions for residents . Furthermore, such events promote environmental awareness, instill a respect for work in young people, and teach every citizen to respect nature. The department staff assembled early in the morning and were provided with all the necessary equipment. Each was assigned a section and set to work responsibly. Some cleared roadsides, others tidied up irrigation ditches. Particular attention was paid to areas where trash had accumulated. In addition to government officials, local residents actively participated in the event. Many families came with their children. Schoolchildren helped adults collect trash into bags and carry them to their vehicles. Thanks to this teamwork, the work proceeded smoothly, and the street was noticeably transformed. Cleanliness isn't just aesthetics; it's also an important factor in the health and safety of city residents . Clogged irrigation ditches can cause flooding during the rainy season, while accumulated garbage can be a source of unpleasant odors and a breeding ground for infection. During the cleanup, these risks were eliminated: irrigation ditches were cleared, and the surrounding areas were cleared of old branches, plastic, and other household debris. Now the street looks tidy, and residents can feel safer and more comfortable. Distinguished pensioner Kaldykul apa shared her impressions: "Our yard used to get cluttered, and the problem was slow to resolve. Now we see with our own eyes how our staff and neighbors work side by side. It's so gratifying that our voice has been heard, and the street is now cleaner." And student Erlan noted: "I came with my friends to help out at the cleanup day. It was a great experience for us—not only to work, but also to realize the importance of caring for nature. We realized that cleanliness depends on each of us." In Nurshuak, such cleanup days are held regularly. They are especially active in the spring, when residents traditionally clean up after winter. However, this year's event stands out because it attracted a much larger number of people, and the scale of the cleanup was significantly larger. While last year's spring cleanup day in the district collected approximately 40 tons of trash, this time tens of tons of household waste were also removed. This trend indicates a growing environmental awareness and a willingness among residents to work together to improve their neighborhood. The district administration considers cleanup days a priority. Officials emphasize that keeping the city clean is not only the responsibility of public utilities but also the responsibility of every resident . The head of the department noted: "The beauty and well-being of our city depend on all of us. Today's cleanup day demonstrated that excellent results can be achieved through joint efforts. We must continue such initiatives and leave a clean and green city for future generations." Particular attention should be given to the participation of young people. On this day, schoolchildren, students, and volunteers took to the streets. Their enthusiasm and activism gave the event a special atmosphere. Young people not only helped with the cleanup but also set an example of how civic responsibility should be nurtured. This is important, because it is from such small steps that an environmentally conscious generation grows, which in the future will be able to protect nature and maintain order at the proper level. The cleanup day held on September 6, 2025 , on Shubarkydyk Street was a significant event for residents of the district. The combined efforts of dozens of people yielded tangible results: the streets were cleaned, the irrigation ditches were restored, and the area looked well-maintained. However, the significance of this event extends far beyond just one day. The cleanup day has become a symbol of unity, shared responsibility, and concern for the future of the city.

One collected garbage from the roadside, while another cleaned the ditch systems. Also, tree stumps were whitewashed and young seedlings were put in order. Local residents also joined the event, not indifferent to the cause. Children helped their parents, collecting bags of garbage. The city residents understand that such an event will bring long-term results, not just one day. Maintaining cleanliness is not only an aesthetic requirement, but also an important factor affecting environmental safety and public health . The blockage of the ditches on Shubarkuduk Street could lead to flooding during the rainy season. During the weekend, this problem was resolved, and the ditch systems were able to function normally again. In addition, the accumulation of garbage not only causes inconvenience to residents, but can also lead to the spread of various diseases. That is why Shabbat is so important for society. One of the local residents, pensioner Kaldygul Apa: "Our streets used to be full of garbage. Today, many things were put in order during the Shabbat. If such events were organized more often, our city would be much cleaner and more beautiful ," he commented. And the young resident, student Erlan: "I participated in the cleanup with my friends. It was a good experience for us. We not only collected garbage, but also realized how important it is to protect nature ," he said. Several Sabbaths have been held in Nurshuak microdistrict before. Especially in the spring months, residents pay a lot of attention to improving the area. The peculiarity of this year's Sabbath is the increase in the number of participants and the large-scale cleaning work. This indicates that the ecological culture of the population is growing year by year. According to last year's data, more than 40 tons of garbage were collected in the district during a single spring cleanup. As a result of this event, dozens of tons of household waste were collected and transported to special landfills. The district akimat considers organizing such cleanups on a regular basis to be one of its main tasks. According to akimat representatives, keeping the city clean is not only the job of municipal services, but also the duty of every resident . The head of the department said in his speech: "The development and prosperity of our city is the joint work of all of us. We worked together today in the Sabbilik and achieved good results. By continuing such measures, we must leave a clean city for future generations ," he said. The activity of young people during the Cleanup Day is especially noteworthy. Schoolchildren, students, and volunteers, taking gloves and bags in their hands and participating in cleanup activities, increase their civic responsibility. This will contribute to the formation of an environmentally conscious generation in the future. The Saturday clean-up on Shubarkuduk Street on September 6, 2025, was of great importance to the residents of the district. As a result of the joint efforts of hundreds of people, the street was cleaned up and a comfortable environment was created for residents. This Saturday was not just a garbage collection, but also an important event that strengthened people's relationships with each other and instilled a sense of shared responsibility. Dear residents of our city!
A cleanup day was held in the Karatau district: residents and employees cleaned Kuskonur and Kentaral streets. 06.09.2025
On September 6, 2025, a large-scale cleanup event took place in Shymkent's Karatau District. Kuskonur and Kentaral Streets served as focal points for the environmental campaign. Employees of government agencies, utility services, and local residents participated in the event. Through joint efforts, the area was cleared of debris, restored order, and created more favorable living conditions for residents. The main goal of the campaign was to maintain the city's sanitary conditions, improve its surroundings, and foster a culture of environmental stewardship among the population . The event's slogan, "A Clean City is Our Common Cause," symbolized the shared responsibility of every resident for the condition of streets, courtyards, and public spaces. The organizers emphasized that such events not only help remove accumulated trash but also create a sense of community involvement among residents, fostering a collective understanding that the city's cleanliness depends on each individual. During the cleanup, a wide range of sanitary measures were carried out: removal of household waste and bulky waste; cleaning sidewalks and roadsides from dust, dirt and dry leaves; pruning dry branches and sanitary treatment of green spaces; mowing grass and tidying up green areas; disinfection of container sites; washing roads and pedestrian areas. As a result, Kuskonur and Kentaral acquired a more well-groomed and tidy appearance, and local residents received a comfortable and safe space for living and recreation. A distinctive feature of the event was the active participation of not only government and utility employees, but also ordinary citizens. Many residents came out into their yards with bags and gloves to join their neighbors in cleaning up their neighborhoods. The deputy akim of the district, who was present at the event, noted: "Keeping the city clean isn't just the responsibility of public utilities. It's the shared responsibility of every resident. If each of us takes care of our own yard and our own street, then all of Shymkent will become cleaner, more beautiful, and more comfortable." Residents of the district willingly shared their impressions of participating in the cleanup day. Zeinetker (pensioner) Aigul apa said: "Trash used to pile up on our street, and no one cared. Today, I was happy to take part, because cleanup starts with us. Now our children and grandchildren will enjoy walking here." Young entrepreneur Nurzhan noted: "My store is located right on Kuskonur Street. Keeping the area clean creates a comfortable environment for both customers and residents. That's why I'm always ready to participate in such events." Student Aruzhan added: "We, the youth, must lead by example. The city is our home. If we don't take care of cleanliness, who will? For me, participating in the cleanup day isn't an obligation, but an inner need." In the Karatau district, cleanup days have long been a good tradition. Last year, similar events were held on these streets, and the results were noticeable: the number of illegal dumps decreased, and the courtyards became cleaner. What's different about this campaign is the increased involvement of residents themselves. While previously it was primarily the utility services that did the work, now more and more residents are realizing their personal responsibility for cleanliness and order. Such cleanups play an important role in fostering environmental awareness among the population. It's especially valuable that young people and students participate. For them, it's not just a simple litter pickup, but part of their education on civic responsibility and respect for nature. Environmentalists note that the more often people participate in such events, the less likely they are to pollute the environment. After all, by picking up trash themselves, people will think twice before throwing it out. District officials announced that similar events will be held regularly, especially in the fall, when the streets are filled with fallen leaves, and in the spring, as part of the traditional cleanup month. In addition, additional measures are planned to improve environmental awareness among residents: holding "Cleanest Yard" competitions, environmental lessons in schools, and educational events for the public. The cleanup day held on September 6, 2025 , on Kuskonur and Kentaral streets demonstrated that only through joint efforts can we achieve cleanliness and order in the city. Thanks to the concerted efforts of municipal services and local residents, a significant amount of waste was collected, green spaces were tidied up, and a favorable living environment was created.

On September 6, 2025, another Saturday clean-up was organized on Kuskonur and Kentaral streets of Karatau district. Employees of the district akimat, municipal institutions, and local residents actively participated in this event, jointly cleaning the streets and restoring order to the surrounding area. The main goal of the Sabbath is to maintain the sanitary cleanliness of the city, timely disposal of household waste, beautify the streets, and create a comfortable living environment for residents . In addition, such events are intended to raise the environmental culture of city residents and form a sense of compassion for nature. The Saturday event, held under the slogan "A Clean City is for All of Us," brought the local community together and increased residents' responsibility for their common home. The work carried out during the weekend was extensive: Garbage piled up on the streets and sidewalks; Dead tree branches were cut and young seedlings were cared for; the grass was mowed and the green area was tidied up; garbage dumps were disinfected; The roadsides were swept and cleared of dust.

The deputy akim of the district made a speech and thanked all the citizens who participated in the Sabbath: "City cleanliness is not just a matter for municipal services, it is a common concern for all of us. If every resident contributes to keeping their yard and street clean, the appearance of Shymkent will change significantly ," he said. Residents who participated in the Saturday event also shared their thoughts. Retired aunt Aigul: "Before, there was a lot of garbage on the streets. Now, Shabbat is organized more often, and we all participate together. This is a joy for us too, because it's nice to live in a clean environment." Young entrepreneur Nurzhan: "My shop is located on this street. If it is kept clean, it will be more convenient for both buyers and residents. That's why I was happy to participate in such an event." Student Aruzhan: "We, the youth, must also contribute. The city is our home. If we keep it clean ourselves, we will be an example for future generations." In the Karatau district, Saturday clean-ups are traditionally held. Last year, cleaning activities were also organized on these streets, as a result of which household waste was significantly reduced. This year's Saturday clean-ups were attended by more residents than ever before. This shows that the population's environmental responsibility is growing. Such Sabbaths are not only a means of cleaning, but also an important means of increasing environmental culture . Through the participation of young people, schoolchildren, and students, they learn to respect nature and care for the environment. The principle of "A clean city is common to all of us" is becoming deeply embedded in society today. This shows that the city's culture has reached a new level. The district akimat plans to continue holding regular Saturdays in the future. Especially in the fall, leaf collection, garbage disposal, and ditch cleaning will continue. In addition, it is planned to organize special environmental competitions to encourage residents to take care of their yards. The cleanup on September 6 significantly improved the appearance of Kuskonur and Kentaral streets. As a result of the joint efforts of government employees and residents, the streets have become cleaner, more attractive, and more comfortable. This event increased the responsibility of the city's residents and once again proved the principle that "a clean environment is a guarantee of health."
