Blanket Drive
ATFA organized a successful study
trip to Turkey with local legislatures for ten days. The trip included
visits to historic sites, cultural family dinners, as well as official
meetings with Turkish counterparts. The meetings consisted of Governors,
Mayors, Business Chambers and local entrepreneurs to discuss bilateral
common actions.
The study trip participants along with MAFTAA Executive Director Mahmut Yeter, paid a visit to the Syrian refugee camp in Adana, Turkey. The participants had a chance to speak with refugees and hear their stories. During the visit to the camp, the delegation became inspired to start a blanket drive to assist refugees before the harsh winter ahead. The blanket drive has officially begun in collaboration with Hizmet Relief organization.
Loudon County Chairman Scott York, and the delegation signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Karsiyaka Municipality located in Izmir province. The Memorandum will be to enhance relations between two parties in cultural, social and business projects of mutual interests.
