This is a story about Zulfiya and her family who live in Yavan. Her husband Unus was from Takob, and he is my friend. About a month ago when I was sick, he asked me to help his family. He heard from some people that I work in Yavan and he found my phone number and called me. I took my wife, Polina, with me and we went to their house. Their village is close to Yavan and it’s called Sarkamish. We had a great discussion when we met.

This was a very encouraging quarter in Murtoch Village.  The Transformational Community Development (TCD) programme has seen progress within six months of its work in the community. The team on the ground is hardworking and goal-oriented, and the communities are eager to participate in our work of bringing hope and help.

I am very encouraged to work here, and I see how people are really being changed through Transformational Community Development (TCD).

What progress have we made, you may ask? We have made good progress in Transformational Community Development (TCD) and villagers are interested in receiving both Help & Hope in all of the villages where we are working, even though we have some challenges in each village.

In all of our Transformational Community Development (TCD) villages here, we have the same problem – we only can work with young people from age 16 to 26. Almost all the men age 26-45 go to Russia for work to earn hard currency. In total, about 90% of the men in the villages leave.
