A shepherd boy from Kazakhstan who made a video about loneliness on his birthday was presented with an iPhone

Toybek Sayat, who runs a TikTok blog about his life in the village, became famous on social networks thanks to a video about loneliness on his birthday. After the publication, the organization Charity_KZ presented him with an IPhone 12, for which, as its founder Albina Mazhit told Gazeta.Ru, they raised money thanks to reposts in social networks in just 2 days.

In a video posted on his birthday, Toybek, to sad music, shows how he bakes a cake, blows out candles and goes to bed with a cat, wiping away tears.

After the publication of a touching video from his birthday, the Charity_KZ charity organization presented him with an IPhone 12. The founder of the charity movement Albina Mazhit, in an interview with Gazeta.Ru, said that with the help of the gift, the activists wanted to help the novice blogger “increase views”. According to her, Sayat did not know what kind of gift awaited him, but he was uncontrollably happy.

“We saw his video where he was lying and crying on his birthday. I called him and asked him why he was crying. It turns out that he was waiting for his relatives to congratulate him. He was upset, and we promised that we would send him a gift, but we did not say what kind. In general, we wanted to help him with money, but we decided that this would reduce his motivation. Therefore, we decided to simply help increase his views so that he could then earn money on the blog. We called him and asked what he needed, he answered: “What are you? It's embarrassing. No no. What are you?" He said that he was uncomfortable, that it was strange. When I received a gift, I was uncontrollably happy, I hugged my girlfriend several times, who handed it over. He came home, sent me an audio message, thanked me, said that he was a little excited, but he liked it so much. He, in fact, did not expect, he really had such a shock, ”she said.

According to Mazhit, Sayat lives in a full-fledged family, he has sisters living in Almaty. She stressed that the boy's relatives support his activities.

“He has a full-fledged family, he has sisters, they are in Almaty. He is the youngest. They live in the village. Parents, apparently, look after someone's cattle, and he helps them, everything around the house is on his shoulders. His sisters are married, they live separately. He said that his sisters were very happy for him. And the sisters are allegedly trying to help him develop his blog. Later, his sister wrote to me that she was going to borrow an IPhone from him. She was so grateful, and to this day she writes, wishes all the best, ”she explained.

Mazhit added that the activists were able to collect the necessary amount for the gift in two days thanks to reposts on social networks. According to her, the fund was sure that they would not be able to raise money for the iPhone 12. The founder of the charity movement also added that the campaign with a gift for Sayat launched a "chain of good deeds."
