Help Send Love and Warmth to Turkey

Urgent donations needed

ATTA friends, we are reaching out to you for help in the aftermath of the tragic earthquake in Turkey. Alper Ertubey is a member of our ATTA family with his company Hike'n Sail Travel based in Istanbul. His company has lost many team members but is also active in sending volunteers to help in the disaster areas. They are in need of 60 sleeping bags and 30 tents for winter use. We have managed to secure all of the needed items in Bulgaria and have arranged to transport them immediately but need financial contributions to raise the money we need to buy them in bulk at cost (thanks to another member of our family, Lyubo from Odyssey). The total amount we need is around 12 460 EUR. The sooner we have the full amount, the faster we can send this much-needed help. Please contribute whatever you can and help us send our ATTA love to Alper and his team!

Mariyana Castleberry (YOLO Dream Adventure Travel yolodat.com) is a member of the Adventure Travel Trade Association (https://www.adventuretravel.biz/). She along with other members of ATTA is facilitating this fundraiser to help fellow member Alper Ertubey (Hike and Sail Travel https://hikeandsail.com/en/) and his team in Istanbul, Turkey. The money raised will be wired to our partner companies in Bulgaria where we have secured to purchase the items requested for this campaign. They will then be transported immediately to Istanbul directly to Alper Ertubey. The items and transportation have already been lined up and awaiting payment to the corresponding companies the items are being purchased at cost from. We are purchasing 60 sleeping bags at cost from Stenata 1997 EOOD Bulgaria (https://stenata.com/38_stenata-1997-eood owner Lubomir Popyordanov also a member of ATTA)

The tents will purchased from Sport Depot Sofia, Bulgaria (https://www.sportdepot.bg/)
