Dear Friend,
Darüssafaka Society was founded in 1863 with the aim of providing equality of opportunity in education to needy, talented children who had lost their fathers. Since then, it has maintained its presence with this mission of "equal opportunity in education".
Today, the 159-year old Society creates a better future for high-potential students who lost one or both parents and are from financially disadvantaged communities. At its school, the Society provides high-quality formal education to eligible students, starting at fifth grade through to the end of high school. Overall at Darüssafaka, there are approximately 1.000 students from all over Turkey.
On September 12, 2022, 156 new 5th grade students, who qualified in the Darüssafaka entrance exam held on May 29, 2022, began their 8 years academic life at the Darüssafaka Schools, on a full scholarship and full boarding status.
Darüssafaka Entrance Exam will be held in 32 provinces on May 21, 2023. Students who are successful will be entitled to free education from secondary school to university after financial situation research and health control.
Each donation you made under '' Zakat & Fitr '' used only for Darüssafaka’s cafeteria by our students for breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks and dinner, enjoys a staff of 50 including dieticians who prepare menus according to students’ developmental and nutritional needs.
Thank you once again for making these accomplishments possible and sharing in our mission to create "equal opportunity in education” in Türkiye.
