Letters were received from the children's orphanage/rehabilitation center from Kulob, where kids with disabilities in hearing, vision, speech disorders and the locomotor system live and receive treatment.

The letters had photos and wishes of children to Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. In total 38 letters were received from 38 special children. The requests were very simple, like warm clothes, shoes, sweets and toys.  At the end of the event children were happy to receive presents.

This campaign is organized for many years by the Eurasia Foundation of Central Asia - Tajikistan with the aim to make special children happier and make real their dreams.
