Worldwide humanitarian aid rises from Turkey

2

As it is said, the life of bee isn’t enough long for making a teaspoonful honey.

Just like human who can succeed smiling at “someone” even if this is not enough

for the whole people. Really, even if it is vey difficult sometimes,

is smiling at people a great sacrifice?

3

No, none of that will be told will be story of a great sacrifice. Even if poverty

wasn’t seperated equally to each meridian of the world, reaching the “farthest”

naked-foot child doesn’t mean sacrifice. At most, it has been the duty of human as

of it was created… It is to return what is already his share. It is to share your food,

your home, your most valuable assets. Just like any creature, who carries

mercy in her heart, has done for centuries.

IS ANYONE THERE?The name of our association can be elucidated in two ways parallel with each other: The

call of people who are waiting for help and the call of our association to helpful people. Our

association turned into an institution in order to act as a bridge between these two points.

After the Big Marmara Earthquake, we became an association within TV in 2002 with the

project which was formed in “Kimse Yok Mu” programme broadcasted in Samanyolu TV in

2001. Detaching from television in 2004, we continued our activities with non-governmental

organization (NGO) identity. Television programme still continues to be broadcasted at STV

every week.

Our association, which strives for struggling against poverty since its inception, organizes aid

campaigns for meeting the basic needs of needy people in felds like poverty, war, disaster,

health, education in domestic and abroad, develops projects and deliver aids to necessary

locations. Through our success in delivering donations in exact amount, to exact destination

and at exact time, the name of our association is heard by our people widely day by day and is

respected more and more… And, we are very happy because of this trust.

school, finding job for family members,

etc.

needy family. If they can solve with their

own means, they do. If not, they receive

help from environment for the needy

family.

sisters and brothers and being acquaint of

demands of needy people continuously and
