Our Foundation Supports Our Children’s Education

As the Foundation, we donated to Bursa Nilüfer Şehitler Secondary School to meet the “smart whiteboard” needs of our children so that they do not keep up with their peers in the world and can study better and more modern education.

Support For Education Is The Priority Of Our Foundation

Regarding the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of our Foundation, said: “Today’s technology has provided innovations in the education sector as in every field. Technological products, which are the easiest way to access information, have started to be included among the educational tools and equipment in our schools. Today, thanks to technological products such as smart boards, the time, working capacity and convenience gained in education have been productive both for students and facilitated the work of teachers a little more. As the Foundation, we will continue to support education at every opportunity.”

What is a smart board?

Smart board products are technological products that provide students with an interactive education using the speed and flexibility of the computer. These products can connect to the internet and access video, text or websites and can also be preferred as a writing board.

Smart boards allow teachers to write and transfer information by touch without the need for apen. In this way, a much faster and more efficient infrastructure has been created in education.

The conveniences that the smart board introduces to education and training are as follows:

  • It allows the processing of all kinds of documents and data in the virtual environment.
  • It increases the teaching capacity of teachers and provides students with a pleasant educational
    experience.
  • It enables students to study more efficiently.
  • Thanks to interactive applications, it enables students to develop creative thinking ability.
  • It makes the lessons more permanent and professional.
  • Students and teachers can access the lessons taught at any time.
  • Finally, it is worth mentioning that it provides administrative savings since products such as
    pencils and chalk are not needed.
The donations and aid projects mentioned here were made by 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.

We Commemorate The Late Salih Tatlıcı On The 14th Anniversary Of His Death By Supporting Education

As it is known, the Salih Tatlici Foundation was established by Nurten Tatlıcı, the wife of the late businessman Salih Tatlıcı, and Uğur Tatlıcı, their son, to keep the name “Salih Tatlıcı” alive.

As the Foundation, on this day, the 14th anniversary of Salih Tatlıcı’s death, we commemorate our late elder with respect and longing.

On this opportunity, we, as the Foundation, have donated to the Darüşşafaka Society, which has launched a new donation campaign in order to provide more opportunities to our earthquake-affected children who lost their mother and/or father in the earthquake in 11 provinces, to provide 8 years of uninterrupted quality education, to provide the quality education they deserve and to reach more students from the earthquake region.

A certificate was presented to our Foundation by the Darüşşafaka Society for the donation.

“Supporting education at every opportunity was also a priority for my late father”

Regarding the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of our Foundation, said: “My late father attached great importance to education. We, as the Foundation, in memory of my dear father on the 14th anniversary of his death; have contributed to the Darüşşafaka, which has always been a home of compassion for talented children who have lost their parents and/or fathers and have insufficient financial means, which has always taken care of our children brought from regions damaged by natural disasters such as earthquakes, and prepared them for their bright futures by providing them with qualified education, and which has now launched an earthquake relief campaign to increase its quota in order to provide 8 years of uninterrupted qualified education to children who have lost their parents and/or fathers in the earthquakes in 11 provinces, which sets an important example of sustainable institutions in our country with its 160-year history. “

For 160 years, our traditional institution providing equal opportunity in education, the Darüşşafaka Society

“Cemiyet-i Tedrisiye-i İslamiye” was founded by Yusuf Ziya Pasha, Gazi Ahmed Muhtar Pasha, Vidinli Hüseyin Tevfik Pasha, Sakızlı Ahmet Esat Pasha and Ali Naki Efendi with the edict of Sultan Abdülaziz Khan dated 30 March 1863. Its aim was to support the education and training of poor and orphaned children. The Society, of which many Ottoman pashas and intellectuals were members, constituted the first example of a civil organization in the field of education in the history of Turkey. Since 1863, the Darüşşafaka Educational Institutions, with the donations of philanthropists, has been raising talented young people who do not have the opportunity for a good education as leader individuals who adopt universal values, are self-confident, and are aware of their duties and responsibilities towards their country and society. The Darüşşafaka Society also provides complimentary scholarship support to graduates of the Darüşşafaka High School who continue their education at the university. On the other hand, since 2014, there is also a higher education scholarship program for university students who are not the Darüşşafaka graduates.

As The Foundation, We Have Donated To Our Dear Four-Legged Friends

As the Salih Tatlıcı Foundation, we have donated to “ANIMAL AID“, which is one of the largest animal rights groups in the UK and peacefully campaigns against animal abuse. A certificate of appreciation was presented to our Foundation by the organization regarding the donation.

“Animal Abuse Should Be Struggled Against and A Cruelty-Free Lifestyle Should Be Encouraged”

Regarding the donation Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of our Foundation, said: “Animals should no longer be harmed or exploited for human interests and should be allowed to live their lives in peace. All people should recognize and respect the rights of animals and these rights should be protected by law. All animals, regardless of their species, should enjoy fundamental rights to life and liberty. This world belongs to all of us. As the Foundation, we also felt it our duty to donate to “ANIMAL AID”, an organization that struggles against animal abuse and works towards promoting a cruelty-free lifestyle for all animals.”

About “ANIMAL AID”

ANIMAL AID is one of the world’s long-established animal rights groups, founded in the UK in 1977. As this is a very long-term vision that will take decades to achieve, as well as working towards it, ANIMAL AID takes a pragmatic approach, campaigning for measures that will help to reduce animal suffering in the meantime. In practice, much of its work is about bringing the truth about animal exploitation to the public’s attention and contributing both to the realization of this vision and to taking measures that will help to reduce animal suffering in the short term.
