Project Report | Oct 11, 2024
I Can Make My Voice Heard to the World

By ASAM | Project Leader

Vitali, came to Türkiye with his family after the war in Ukraine started, was only 14.  Vitali, who had previously only visited Türkiye for vacation, had to start a new life with the outbreak of war. The young man, who is now 17 years old, said that he managed to adapt here in a short time thanks to the warm hospitality he encountered in Türkiye.

Vitali is completing his education in Türkiye and is preparing for his new goal, the university exam. In addition, Vitali started working in Ukrainian Associations as a volunteer and had the opportunity to organize many cultural and social events with the grant support provided by Association for Social Development and Aid Mobilization (ASAM) to Ukrainian Associations. He stated that thanks to these events, he had the chance to socialize with the Turkish people and introduce Ukrainian culture.


While Vitali described the people in Türkiye as "helpful", he stated that they facilitated the adaptation process and that he did not experience major difficulties. “I would like to thank ASAM for not making me feel like a stranger here and for always supporting me in every aspect,” he said.

Vitali is interested in music and he is in a choir group. Emphasizing that participating in the choir has a special meaning for Vitali, the young man added, "Perhaps it is an opportunity for me to make my voice heard to the world."

(Note: The real name of the beneficiary has been changed.)
