A residential building is commissioned in Masazyr for young people deprived of parental care - leavers of children homes

On December 26, inauguration of another residential building with 120 apartments, constructed for young people deprived of parental care – leavers of children homes, took place in Masazyr settlement, Absheron district.

 

Participating in the ceremony, Azerbaijan’s First Lady, President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation Mehriban Aliyeva laid the foundation of another 120-apartment house.

 

One of the large projects of social significance implemented by the Agency for Restoration and Reconstruction of Territories, which has joined the Foundation’s initiative, is construction of a residential house for  orphans – leavers of boarding schools, to provide them with a living space after they left the school, having reached the age of maturity. In December 2014, inauguration of the first 13-storied residential house with 120 apartments, constructed for leavers of children’s homes in Masazyr settlement, took place. This year, another apartment house was built in the area, with extensive infrastructure, and commissioned for use.

 

All apartments in the two-block house have been provided with furniture, including kitchen equipment, and bed sets. A nursery, halls for ceremonies and other events have been created in the building.

 

Providing leavers of children homes with apartments and ensuring their employment has been among the priority issues in many projects implemented by the Heydar Aliyev Foundation. Thus, Mehriban Aliyeva puts an end to the problem the society has long been concerned about. The public concern associated with future fate of leavers of children homes was removed at the initiative of President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation Mehriban Aliyeva. Such apartments, commissioned last year with participation of Mehriban Aliyeva, along with being a grandiose project aiming at solving Azerbaijani citizens’ problems, are also an obvious example of care and attention shown by the first lady towards people in need of social protection, especially leavers of children homes.

 

This was also underscored at a meeting with girls who have been provided with an apartment. Girls thanked Mehriban Aliyeva for works she has done, and her constant support. They said these apartments were the best gift for them on the eve of the New Year.

 

Mehriban Aliyeva congratulated them on the new apartments, and upcoming holidays.

 

Then, Mehriban Aliyeva laid the foundation of a 120-apartment, 13-floor building in the area.

 

A kindergarten will be located on the ground floor of the building to be constructed.

 

As a result of implementing this project of social significance, an exercise hall, table tennis and internet rooms are functioning to ensure that young leavers of children homes can spend their leisure efficiently. Children home leavers themselves are working at the said service spheres, which plays an essential role in their employment.
