Trying to help young woman in Kazakhstan

10 years ago
Hello,

Is there an easy way to send small sums of money from the US to Kazakhstan?

About 10 years ago I got involved with a program run by 2 young women in the Peace Corp that was helping children in an orphanage. I sent things to a young girl - clothes and toys. She wrote to me several times. When she was 16 she left the orphanage and I lost track of her. Eventually she wrote to me again and told me the sadness in her life. I've received a few letters over the years. The last was a very sad story with a desperate request for money. I cannot help her secure a place to live, but would like to send small sums of money when I am able. I'm not sure what city she is in, but can ask the woman who translates for me. Thank you!
