Do you remember your teacher from primary school?
As Turks4Good, we want to remember the young, selfless rural school teachers in their first few years on the job, in the remote corners of Turkey. Our 4Kids projects for their classrooms and children are only a small token of our appreciation. We want to salute them, and honor them, and thank them… They are indeed a national treasure!
Here is Nimet Çetinkaya from Konya who is serving at Van’s Seydibey Vilage School… You can read more about Nimet at our below Medium article published in “Building Bridges”
We are a group of volunteers who are passionate philanthropists. Our work depends on micro-funding… You can support our projects by donating from our secure links on the right…
