Support from Nurten and Uğur Tatlıcı to the “Bonorong* Wildlife Sanctuary”

Nurten and Uğur Tatlıcı, also known for their donations for the protection of nature and the environment in Turkey and different parts of the world, gave donation to the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary operating in the Tasmania region of Australia.

Uğur Tatlıcı said: “Together with my mother, our respect for people, nature, and the environment and our support in this direction will continue after this, too.”

Nurten and Uğur Tatlıcı, who both are known for their support for nature and environment protection in our country and different parts of the world, said the following about the donation: “A world in which we can live in harmony with all living things without burning, destroying, polluting the natural habitats of living things in nature, or disturbing the natural balance with artificial interventions can only exist with love. My late father, Salih Tatlıcı, May his soul rest in peace, also taught us to help people, love and respect people, and nature. In this direction, both my mother and I lend a helping hand to the charities in our country. Our donation to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary is a continuation of these. Anyone who sees the condition of the injured and baby wild animals and the volunteers who try to help them cannot stand idly by; they would want to do something and help. Here, with humanitarian sensitivity, we help both people and baby animals orphaned in the wild. Our respect to people, nature, and the environment and our support in this direction will continue after this, too.”

Bonorong – Tasmania’s Wildlife Sanctuary

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary was established in 1981 to assist injured wild animals and orphaned and neglected baby wild animals and is Australia’s most popular wildlife park.

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, which receives more than 3,000 emergency notifications a year for injured and orphaned wild animals, provides a natural habitat for the survival of wounded animals, especially endangered Australia, and the growth of baby animals, by taking action on the notifications.

The organization, which survives entirely with donations and public support, has trained more than 300 volunteers to support activities in this direction.

*An Aboriginal word meaning “native companion.”

The donations and aid projects mentioned here were made with the personal income of the founders of our Foundation, Nurten Tatlıcı and her son Uğur Tatlıcı, in memory of the late Salih Tatlıcı, the benevolent person whose name continues to live on through our Foundation and whom they bid farewell in journey to eternity in 2009.
