Amrut Supports Effort For People of Turkey and Syria

With the onset of the new year, the world looked to put behind the troubles and hardship of the COVID-19 era and  build stronger economies and communities the world-over. Devastatingly for the people of Turkey and Syria, a massive earthquake on 6 February 2023 derailed the hopes and ambitions of thousands of citizens whose lives have been irrevocably changed due to the loss of life and damage to property.

As part of the outpouring of support from across the world, South African NGO Hope SA sent a team out to Turkey to survey the situation and understand how South Africa-based NGOs could offer meaningful assistance.

The Amrut Foundation made a small contribution of 100 quality mattresses towards Hope SA’s long-term initiative of rehabilitating those worst affected by the earthquake.

With the assistance of the Turkish Embassy in South Africa, Hope SA is regularly sending cargo consignments to partner organisations in Turkey. Amrut was happy to be a small part of this effort and has pledged further support in the future.
