We Support the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons.

Our foundation made a donation to the “United Nations Voluntary Trust Fund for Victims of Human Trafficking” on the occasion of the “10th World Day Against Trafficking in Persons.” This donation supports efforts to raise awareness about the causes and vulnerabilities associated with child trafficking, emphasizes the critical need for specialized support for child trafficking victims, and calls on the public and policymakers to address existing gaps and take action to end human trafficking. In recognition of this contribution, the United Nations presented our foundation with a certificate of appreciation.

Let’s Ensure No Child Is Left Behind in the Fight Against Human Trafficking.

Regarding the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board member of our Foundation stated: “According to the Global Report on Trafficking in Persons (GLOTIP) by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), one-third of human trafficking victims are children, and the majority of these abducted children are girls. Children are twice as likely as adults to experience violence during trafficking. Comprehensive measures to protect vulnerable groups and assist child victims are urgently needed. This requires joint efforts at both national and international levels. States must prioritize the protection of children, strengthen legislation, enhance law enforcement, and allocate more resources to combat child trafficking. They should also reinforce child protection networks and adapt criminal law to better address the needs of children. As a Foundation, we have contributed to the United Nations fund, which is doing significant work in this area.”

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.

Our Foundation Supports the United Nations for “International Brotherhood Day”

On the occasion of the “International Day of Brotherhood“, our Foundation donated to the “Ukraine Humanitarian Fund“, one of the country-based funds of the United Nations, which works to eliminate differences and promote religious understanding and cooperation among people of all cultures and beliefs.

A certificate of appreciation was presented to our Foundation by the United Nations for the donation.

Together Let’s Pave the Way to a More Peaceful, Just and Harmonious World for All

Regarding the donation, Uğur Tatlıcı, Executive Board Member of our Foundation, said: “Our world is full of divisions, conflicts and inequalities. Discrimination is at an all-time high. We must come together to protect and promote human rights, combat hate speech and violent extremism, and take action against those who profit from fear. Inspired by the declaration “Human Fraternity for World Peace and Coexistence” co-authored by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed Al Tayeb, we can work for a world where dialogue, compassion and mercy coexist. And human dignity prevails. Let us reaffirm our commitment to eliminate differences and promote religious understanding and cooperation among people of all cultures and faiths. We, as the Foundation, have donated to the “Ukraine Humanitarian Fund” at the United Nations to help humanitarian NGOs and UN agencies in Ukraine help the most vulnerable communities and people and provide them with urgently needed food, water, shelter and other basic necessities, working to save lives and build a better future for millions of people who have been forced to flee their homes due to the ongoing war in our long-time neighbor Ukraine. On this International Day of Brotherhood, we celebrate the spirit of mutual respect and solidarity that binds us together as one human family.”

Support to Fight Against Hunger from Uğur and Nurten Tatlıcı

Late businessman Salih Tatlıcı’s wife Nurten Tatlıcı and their son Uğur Tatlıcı donated to the World Food Programme (WFP), which works under the United Nations and fights hunger worldwide. Uğur and Nurten Tatlıcı, who donated to the School Feeding section created by the program for the healthy nutrition of school-age children, became the program’s supporters that help feed millions of children worldwide every day as the world’s largest and most comprehensive school meal provider.

For a Better World, Don’t Let Children Go Hungry

“My late father used to say that ‘hunger is one of the greatest disasters that can happen to a person.’” He always prayed that no one would be educated by hunger, and he always supported everyonestarving, whether child or adult. If we want to live in a world in peace and tranquility, the problem of hunger must be resolved. In a world of abundance, hunger should be a thing of the past. My mother and I also believe that hunger will lead to diseases, deaths, and an increase in the tendency to commit crimes, and we support organizations that fight hunger,” Uğur Tatlıcı said regarding the donation.

Humanitarian organization that saves and changes lives: World Food Program (WFP)

World Food Programme (WFP) is the ‘United Nations’ food aid program and the world’s largest humanitarian organization in the field of hunger and food security. Established in 1961, the program also delivers food aid to people in emergencies such as wars and natural disasters.

One of the fields of activity within the scope of the World Food Programme is the support of School Feeding. Almost all countries around the world have a school meal program, and every day, efforts are made to ensure that at least 368 million children, from kindergartens to secondary schools, have a healthy diet and complete their development in favorable conditions.

With the efforts of the World Food Programme, effective steps can be taken for both education and healthy nutrition of children by reaching the poor and families struggling with hunger through their school-age children.

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.
