[DONATION] A donation campaign for the natural disaster happened in Turkey

[Vispilio]

Thanks to everyone for their contributions and well wishes.

This double (edit: triple) earthquake might be the most devastating disaster in the history of Turkish republic, the failing government attempts to downplay all the figures for its own ulterior political motives. Several cities feel like ghost towns at night with a few journalists walking in darkness hearing the cries of help coming from under the rubble for kilometers with no help in sight, even after 48 hours, they confess the truth in abject horror even as they know it'll probably cost them their jobs...

some journalists are now being prevented from reporting the proportions of the calamity, just citing a few foreign sources so our friends can understand the gravity of the situation.

A geophysics professor puts the minimum estimate of people trapped under collapsed buildings to be 184,000; given there is no scientific survey yet about the total tally of collapsed buildings and missing people, even this is an extremely conservative estimate...

The incident is really tragic. This is very sad to see.  But it's admirable that so many people are coming forward to donate to it. So far $623k has been donated through bsc wallet via BNB and different stablecoin/coins. who died due to this incident, I hope that god will grant them paradise. And may God grant speedy recovery to those who are injured.
I am not a very rich person.  But I am trying to donate some money.  I donated some money from my signature campaign payment today. Hope everyone will show interest in donating something according to their ability.

Guys, first of all I want to thank everyone who has helped and prayed. First of all, the address of the foundation we have shared is an address that all the country trust and which is of a foundation that is working hard with everything it has.

We are being very careful because we have had very bad experiences before in such incidents as the whole country. A few members I know from the Turkish community are living in the earthquake area unfortunately. There have been some members I have been able to reach. But still there are members who I haven't been able to. The friends I have been able to reach are saying that the situation is much worse than it seems on the media. We are facing the biggest disaster of the 100-year history of Republic of Turkey.

Against this disaster, all the support coming from all around the world are becoming some morale for every person who is a victim. Lastly some world-renowned footballers have started to collect donation for earthquake victims by putting up their signed jerseys for auction. https://twitter.com/Merihdemiral/status/1622999188320518144

As a humanitarian volunteer and I am also involved in various charity activities that have taken place and more or less I understand how volunteers work hard to help the people there. I hope and pray that all the volunteers who have arrived there will be given health, so that they can carry out activities to help the people there, condolences for the tragedy that has befallen our brothers and sisters in Turkey, "Their current suffering is also part of the sorrow and suffering of all of us".

We as volunteers (LEC) will hold a prayer together with the children in the non-formal school that we manage and plan to hold a prayer this Sunday, hopefully the Turkish people can get through this disaster with patience and accelerate post-traumatic healing.

This earthquake greatly affected everyone living in Turkey like us.  People's hearts break when they see people removed on Twitter and other social media platforms.  It's worse when you don't get anything.  Thank you for being sensitive to this event and for your prayers for us.  I hope we will bring better times hand in hand.

This earthquake in Turkey has shaken the hearts of people all over the world. It will not be wrong to say that this earthquake is a tragic earthquake in history. There is nothing worse than being a family member hearing many people plead for help but not being able to do anything for their family. The rescue workers have already managed to rescue many people alive through tireless efforts but the rescuers are also struggling to rescue people from the rubble. Maybe I don't have enough money to donate but I will pray to God that this rescue work will be completed soon and that the Almighty God will save all those who are still alive and that those who have died in this earthquake will be granted paradise.

This one incident in Turkey has moved the hearts of people all over the world. Suddenly on the newsfeed I see a huge magnitude 9 earthquake in Turkey and the roads and all the buildings under construction in Turkey have collapsed. I know why this news was difficult to accept. After a while I can see what tragic situation has been created in Turkey. How people are buried under the rubble. One video really touched my heart. Someone might have been buried under the rubble of the buildings and he might have been hitting some iron very hard with something to attract the attention of the rescue workers so that the rescuers would realize his presence. The truth is very tragic. May God give patience to those who lost their relatives in this accident. What we have to do now is to stand by Turkey and those of us who cannot financially stand by Turkey, pray to God that this situation will be normalized very soon.

After a catastrophic earthquake, everything fell apart in moments. The loss of loved ones in the span of a moment will be mourned for a lifetime. With the passing of time, the assurance of life is gradually reducing. 72 hours have almost passed. The tears of losing dearest seem to be getting heavier. Rescue work is underway but much remains to be done. This situation seems to increase the grief. Aid is coming from different parts of the world, but is it possible to quickly help the people under the rubble? Everything will be reconstructed once a time but those people will never be seen.

First of all, I would like to express my condolences for the disaster that has occurred in Turkey. I hope that the people affected by the disaster are given strength and are always under the protection of Allah SWT. Amen
For the families of the victims who died to be given fortitude.
Amen🤲

Unfortunately there are so many agonizing photos reaching us from the earthquake area. It makes me quite happy to see donates coming from all around the world for the earthquake victims. The donation amount collected in the addresses in the OP has passed 3.6 million dollars The relations between Turkey and Greece were very bad until yesterday. But after the disaster our neighbor has been one of the first countries running for our call for help. I hope the humanity can always manage to league together in the future instead of only disaster times.

Türkiye and Greece are the same people living on both sides of the Aegean Sea. It's quite natural for them to come to aid after such a natural disaster. When a similar disaster happens to them, as their neighbors, we go first as usual. Except for some politicians and fascists, there is no one who sees hostility between these two countries and their people.

In addition to that, aid comes from Canada to Japan from all over the world. We are grateful for that.

[mindrust]

Haluk Levent and the AHBAP team have been reliably running aid campaigns for years.  From the moment the earthquake happened, they continue to work to help them as much as they can.  We need to support them in this.  Too many people need help.  Thank you to everyone who helped.

There is a big aid campaign and everyone is trying to provide whatever is missing to the earthquake affected areas.  We can get through such difficult days with less pain only if we act together.

Haluk Levent and AHBAP are one of the most reliable and important persons and institutions in Türkiye. You can totally trust. For many years they have been trying to help every person in need, they always give support.
Unfortunately, Türkiye is going through very difficult times. People really need help right now. I'm sure there will be people who want to donate on the forum as well

I can vouch.

I also donated to AHBAP* and I recommend you NOT to donate to any other organisation because most people here don't trust the government organisations like Kizilay and AFAD. Kizilay (which is probably the most famous charity organisation in Turkiye) has a history of giving the donation money to another charity organisation (Ensar) which abused children, and AFAD has a manager which is simply not capable and possibly corrupted.

Only DONATE TO AHBAP.

*side note: Ahbap means "Dude" in Turkish.

At this stage, we were very happy to see that the world was one heart.  As a Turk, we are in a situation where even the slightest help is needed at this stage.  Hungarian team, Korean team, Japanese team, Poland, Israel and Greece teams from search and rescue teams pulled many people out from under the rubble.  We are grateful to them.  This has become a test not only for Turkey but also for the world.  Accounts will be asked one by one from those in the construction sector in Turkey, responsible for the buildings destroyed in this earthquake.  The most important thing right now is aid and humanitarian needs.  Thank you, dear friends, for being with the Turkish people.

This incident shocked the whole world.  And thousands of people including children and old people lost their lives in this incident. So no one is hesitating to donate here and it is very commendable that the level of donation is increasing day by day. Along with donations from various countries, cryptocurrencies are playing a vital role for donating Turkey during this tragic time. I think  people have donated more or less from this forum. I'm not sure of this but I'm guessing a bit. But I am trying to donate as little as I can. Because this incident brought tears to my eyes

We know that the sensitivity levels of the members on the forum are very high. Therefore I also think there is a significant level of donation from the forum. Besides thank you as well for your sensitivity.

I don't want to talk about any foundation. I just shared Ahbap which is the most trustworthy foundation among all the people here. All the country trust Ahbap. Besides the president of Ahbap said that he was going to share all the invoices with public. I'm also going to add it into the topic when he shares them.

It's shocking to see what happened in Turkey and Syria. Watching videos of huge buildings full of people falling down in few seconds is one of the scariest things that you can see. It's already confirmed that over 23 000 people lost their lifes and sadly, this number is still increasing. It's miracle that some people are still getting taken alive from rubble after few days, considering that had to spend it in cold, without water and food, seriously injured.
It's bad that Bitcoin isn't accepted for donations, but I'm going to exchange money to help as much as I can. My thoughts with people of Turkey and Syria.

[execijutiere]

Donations are also collected through the Turkish cryptocurrency exchange BtcTurk. Those who want can take a look.

At times like this, Turkey and Syria needed all the assistance they could get to be able to withstand the earthquake disaster that has currently befallen them. I will continue to pray for them and ask God to give the Turkish people the strength to endure the tragedy.

God bless you, OP, for bringing it up here and asking forum members to do what they can to help the Turkish people. No amount is too small, the donation made for the people of Turkey will go a long way. Let's support and be blessed

[SOKO-DEKE]

I can't really image what happened in Turkish and how the entire turkey population is feeling right now. It was heartbreaking news. I'd want to donate, but I don't have much but promise to do something even small I believe no amount is too small for donation.I believe the Almighty will send the helpers, and I vow to back it up with prayers that the Almighty will make things easier for everyone in turkey generally.

Hello bitcoiners, besides some good news and miracles, it's getting worse in Turkiye. Victims of the devastating earthquake need more support. Please consider donating BitcoinBTC to NGO's through BtcTurk, one of the very first exchanges in the world ==> https://donation.btcturk.com
