As you know, the Basic Needs Association (TIDER) joined the Adım Adım platform this year and launched our first campaigns. Last week, I wrote a campaign article for the new Support Market, which we aim to open with your support in the Bağcılar-Esenler area, where approximately 100,000 people in need live, and shared it both via email and social media.

 

Here’s the message I shared:

Dear Friends,

At the Basic Needs Association (TIDER), we’ve successfully operated our first pilot Support Market in Maltepe for over a year: We’ve met the basic needs of over 4,000 families, including food, cleaning products, and clothing, and created jobs for nearly 50 people.

If you haven’t seen it yet, I recommend checking out TIDER’s website for details: http://www.tider.org

Now, it’s time to implement our proven Support Project (Support Market + Support HR) in one of Istanbul’s most struggling areas. We want to open a Support Market in the Bağcılar-Esenler area. While there are approximately 5,000 people in need in Maltepe, this number reaches 100,000 in Bağcılar alone. By opening a Support Market in the Bağcılar-Esenler area, we will first prevent waste in that area. Then, we will meet the basic needs of many those in need and provide them with vocational training, enabling them to become self-sufficient. If you’d like to support us in this endeavor, you can donate to my campaign. You can find the details at https://ipk.adimadim.org/kampanya/CC12976.

To donate, simply visit https://bagis.adimadim.org/?ccid=CC12976.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Regards,

Serhan

As always, I’ve tried to be concise and clear. Of course, there have been campaigns that are much more colorful than mine. I’d like to share an example of one of these campaigns that I’m truly proud of.

Here’s Burcu Çağdaş’s positive and emotional campaign article:

 

We’re proud to be contributing to a beneficial cause while also exercising for ourselves and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I’ve personally lost 6 kg in the last month. I’m in better shape than I expected. I think many people who participate in our campaign also see the benefits of exercise.

Big-hearted people who are passionate about different sports also support us. For example, the Jüpi Sailing Team is among those who supported our campaign. We set sail with the Jüpi Sailing Team on a Sunday, led by Melike Esra Karayel. Here’s a photo we took after the event:

At this event, we had a wonderful interview with Damla Sargut, to be published in Sualtı Newspaper:

I’d like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who supported us.

We’ve had many enjoyable moments throughout all our campaigns, special events, and training sessions. Here are some colorful photos taken with our individual supporters:

Let everyone be assured of this: Not a single penny of the donations will go to waste, and we will open the Support Market on the Bağcılar-Esenler route with your support under all circumstances. Ultimately, we will greatly benefit a community of up to 100,000. What we’ve done so far is a guarantee of what we will do.

So, please be generous with your donations.

If you still don’t understand what I’m talking about, or if what I’ve written here doesn’t make sense to you, I recommend reading my previous articles about TIDER and the Support Project: http://www.serhansuzer.com/tr/yoksullukla-mucadelede-ideal-bir-model-destek-projesi
