We Supported a Solidarity Effort That Transcends Borders for Our Beloved Animals

The Salih Tatlıcı Foundation continues to expand its social responsibility projects to an international scale, in line with the philanthropic legacy of our late founder, Salih Tatlıcı, who embraced humanity, nature, and all living beings. As part of this effort, our Foundation made a significant donation to “Eurogroup for Animals,” an organization that carries out extensive work across Europe to protect animal rights and improve living standards.

“Respect for All Forms of Life Is an Investment in Our Shared Future”

Commenting on the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of the Salih Tatlıcı Foundation, stated:

“Building a more livable world requires taking responsibility not only for humans but also on behalf of all living beings who cannot speak for themselves. In line with this understanding, we consider it our duty to support initiatives aimed at developing legal frameworks for animal protection, raising welfare standards, and increasing public awareness.

Our foundation embraces social responsibility not merely as a human-centered concept, but as a universal principle that safeguards the right to life for all living beings. We are delighted to contribute to “Eurogroup for Animals,” one of Europe’s most respected civil society networks in the field of animal welfare. As the SalihTatlıcı Foundation, we remaincommitted to continuing our work with compassion, social solidarity, and a sense of responsibility, supporting national and international projects that add value to humanity, the environment, and the shared existence of all living beings.”
