Pavel Durov made a surprise visit to the IQanat school in Kazakhstan after discovering it on Google maps. During his visit, he found the process of selecting and educating gifted rural children very interesting.
After hearing about how these students, despite their difficult backgrounds, were making significant academic progress and getting into top universities, Durov decided to personally fund 12 additional grants totaling $365,000.
Miracles like this do happen! The children tried very hard, participated in the Olympiad and fell a little short, but Pavel, by chance, ended up at the school and radically changed the course of events! Respect to him, and joy for our children!concludes Aidyn Rakhimbayev, Head of BI Group and founder of IQanat School.
