On March 18, 2026, CPC-K completed a charitable project to upgrade five chemistry classrooms in three rural schools. The equipment handover ceremony was attended by the representatives of the CPC-K Government Relations Department, the head of the Education Department of the Atyrau Region Akimat and heads of educational institutions.
Renovated specialized classrooms have been opened at the Essenbai Ageleuov Secondary School in Makhambet village, the Ghibatolla Massalimov Secondary School in Isatai village and the Khamza Sanbayev Secondary School in Makat village. The classrooms have been equipped with measuring instruments, laboratory equipment and sets of chemical reagents. All equipment and furniture are designed for laboratory classes for students in grades 7–11. Using this equipment, students can not only study theory but also conduct full-scale experiments, which is particularly important for students specializing in chemistry and biology. In total, more than 2,800 children attend the schools that have received equipment for their chemistry classrooms.
Since 2001, CPC submits approximately $3 million annually to charitable projects in Kazakhstan. Social projects include construction and reconstruction of schools, kindergartens and medical institutions. Among the 12 recently built facilities are kindergartens in Samal microdistrict and Birlik settlement in Atyrau, in Kulsary town, in Ganyushkino village and Akkol settlement of Kurmangazy district and two kindergartens in Akkistau settlement of Isatai district.
