The late businessman Salih Tatlıcı’s wife Nurten Tatlıcı and their son Uğur Tatlıcı donated to the “SOS Ukraine” (Emergency Assistance for Ukraine) campaign organized by the “People in Need” organization, an international charity headquartered in the Czech Republic, for the people of Ukraine, who were adversely affected by the ongoing war in Ukraine.
I sincerely wish peace to prevail in our world.
“Wars leave only wreckages, pain, tears, and deep wounds. What is most painful is the death of innocent babies, children, women, and older people by bombs. I wish wars would end in our world and peace would prevail in democracy, freedom, and solidarity. In addition to the aids my mother and I have provided for the Ukrainian people, who have been victims of the war that has been going on for months, we supported the aid campaign organized by the “People in Need” organization this time, an international aid organization headquartered in the Czech Republic, for the people of Ukraine. On this occasion, we reiterate our wish that diplomatic efforts will be concluded as soon as possible and that the war in our northern neighbor will come to an end, and that peace will be ensured permanently.” Uğur Tatlıcı stated regarding the donation.
The “People in Need” Organization
The People in Need organization was established in 1992 by a group of Czech war correspondents who were no longer satisfied with merely relaying information about ongoing conflicts and began sending out aid. It continues its activities as a professional humanitarian organization striving to provide assistance in troubled regions and promote adherence to human rights worldwide.
The People in Need is a non-governmental, non-profit organization founded on the ideals of humanism, freedom, equality, and solidarity. It considers human dignity and freedom to be fundamental values. The Organization believes that people anywhere in the world should have the right to make decisions about their lives and share the rights expressed in the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights.” Immediately after the start of the current Ukraine-Russia conflict, the Organization has begun to deliver humanitarian aid to Ukraine and support refugees arriving in the Czech Republic and other countries. The Organization operates in the West and East of Ukraine, where humanitarian aid vehicles and trains go and work with teams of more than 100 people, helps people from Ukraine in cooperation with local organizations in neighboring countries, and provides social assistance to refugees in most regions of the Czech Republic. The “People in Need” organization has collected donations of one and a half billion Czech crowns in the first few weeks after the start of the Russian occupation.
