Türkiye Earthquake Relief Fund - Binghamton

As graduate students from Turkey who study at Binghamton University, we are raising funds for Turkish Philanthropy Funds, a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, to help the victims of the recent earthquakes.

On Monday, February 6th, two major 7.8 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes hit Turkey and Syria in less than 24 hours. More than fifteen thousand people were reported dead, sixty thousand were injured and over six thousand buildings collapsed leaving hundreds of thousands of people without access to shelter in harsh winter conditions. TBF is currently raising funds for its Turkiye Earthquake Relief Fund to support the local agencies and organizations that deliver food, water, shelter, medicine, and other urgent needs to the regions affected by this disaster. Your donations are tax-deductible.

Here are the average prices of the most urgent needs in Turkey that your help can reach:

A blanket, power bank, or similar items: 15 USD

Food boxes, women's hygiene products, baby formulas, and diapers: 40 USD

A winter coat, boots, or similar items: 50 USD

More is appreciated to buy expensive items such as disaster tents and generators.
