Monday September 17, 2018 is the day all the students in Turkey are going to be at their schools..
Let's just hope every student is happy, confident, excited and looking forward to a new semester. In rural and economically disadvantaged areas, it may not always be the case for all of the students. That is why Bridge to Turkiye Fund was established back in 2003 as a volunteer non-profit organization...That is why all the volunteers at BTF are collaborating with each other to reach those kids somewhere in Turkey who are as smart as their fortunate peers but do not have the resources to have their dreams come true...
With your support, we sent 1200 school bags, 10,500 story books to 80 schools, 540 pieces of educational toys to 20 schools, 1307 pairs of sneakers, 1059 coats and 978 boots, 3,189 english-turkish-turkish-english dictionaries to the students in Turkey in the last semester.
It is our goal that we would continue delivering happiness and hope to the children in Turkey in the new coming school year...
We contacted our providers in Turkey so they could make the educational materials ready to be delivered to the schools in time for the students...
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting the education of children and keeping hope alive...
Love,
Bridge to Turkiye Volunteers
