Rustam Minnikhanov launches campaign “Help to prepare for school”

Republican charitable campaign “Help to prepare for school” has started in Tatarstan again. President of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov has launched the campaign in Naberezhnye Chelny. Chiefs of republican municipalities, enterprises, children with their parents attended the solemn ceremony.

“We started this campaign in 2007. Since then, 15-20 % of pupils have obtained support to prepare for school. I suppose it is the right campaign, because children have nothing to do with the problem that parents do not have the same resources. At the same time, our municipalities and enterprises can support children,” the Tatarstan President said.

Rustam Minnikhanov reminded that significant changes have happened in republic in the sphere of school education. “We need highly skilled specialists all investors always ask us about. I suppose we have to support all initiatives in school education,” Rustam Minnikhanov said.

“During this month the campaign “Help to prepare for school” will be held in republic and I hope none of the children will be ignored,” the President stressed.

Then, Rustam Minnikhanov, Mayor of Naberezhnye Chelny Vasil Shaikhraziev handed rucksacks, sports gear and certificates for purchasing school accessories to children from large families.
