In 2024, Kazakhstan faced unprecedented flooding that affected residents in more than 10 regions, with many families losing their only homes. The scale of the disaster called for unity and collective action from across the country.

The Halyk Charitable Fund, led by its founder and philanthropist Timur Kulibayev, actively responded to the crisis by providing comprehensive financial and material support to the operational headquarters of regional akimats.

“I deeply sympathize with those affected by the floods. From the very first days, we have been providing assistance to the regions impacted by this disaster. I am confident that under the leadership of our President, Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich Tokayev, we will overcome these challenges together,” said Timur Kulibayev.

The Halyk Charitable Fund and Halyk Bank jointly allocated 1.445 billion tenge from their own resources—including one-day salary donations from employees—to support flood victims in the Aktobe, Kostanay, West Kazakhstan, Akmola, Atyrau, Karaganda, North Kazakhstan, Turkestan, Almaty, Pavlodar, Ulytau, and Abai regions.

In addition, Timur Kulibayev personally committed an additional 30 billion tenge for the restoration of the Atyrau region. In total, more than 31.4 billion tenge was allocated to flood relief efforts.
