Help victims of catastrophic earthquake in Turkey

Turkey has been devastated by two catastrophic earthquakes and dozens of aftershocks. The southeastern province of Hatay, where our family lives, is one of the hardest hit. Hatay has the country's highest death toll, and half of the buildings are estimated to be completely destroyed or otherwise severely damaged. Tragically, The two major state hospitals have been destroyed.

We are very thankful our immediate family is alive, and we hope that community members stuck under the rubble can be rescued. Survivors have been left outside without shelter, warmth and food due to constant aftershocks and destroyed homes.

Your donation will be transferred to the Antakya Kültürünü Tanıtma ve Yaşatma Derneği (Antakya Culture Promotion and Survival Association), which has been providing essential aid such as water, food, blankets, clothes, medicine and tents to communities in Hatay that have not yet received assistance from government agencies. We thank you for your support; every dollar counts.
