As in previous years, Eid al-Adha has become a meaningful time for growing solidarity with those in need across the world. Thanks to a campaign supported by volunteers, sacrificial animals were sacrificed and meat distributed in seven different countries across Africa and Asia. The project specifically targeted impoverished families in hard-to-reach areas. The sacrificial animals were slaughtered under hygienic conditions under the supervision of local teams and distributed to those in need.
During this process, each donor received transparent reports, photos, and videos of the sacrifice and distribution of their animal. This allowed supporters to see firsthand that their aid was truly reaching those in need. Through one-on-one communication with the local community during distributions, not only aid was provided but also a bond of affection was built.
The sacrifice event was seen not only as an aid effort but also as a way to share cultural and human values. In addition to sacrificial meat, small holiday gifts, hygiene kits, and clothing aid were also provided to children in the aided areas. All these efforts once again demonstrated how the spirit of international volunteerism is reflected in the field.
This year, a scholarship program supported by volunteers has enabled 200 students to continue their education without interruption. The scholarships cover basic needs and stationery expenses.
During Ramadan, a total of 12,000 food parcels were distributed to those in need across Türkiye and surrounding regions. Each parcel contained enough products to meet the basic nutritional needs of a family.
As part of the Water Well Project, clean drinking water wells were opened in three villages in rural Tanzania. Hundreds of people who had been without access for years now have access to clean, safe drinking water for the first time.
