___________________

A devastating earthquake struck Turkiye on February 6th, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. The devastation has left many families homeless, injured and in need of basic necessities like food, water, and medical attention. 

In this time of great need, we ask each and every one of us to consider giving generously to help those affected by the earthquake in Turkiye and Syria. No matter how small, every donation can make a difference in the lives of those in need.

As Muslims, it is our duty to come together and assist those in need, especially during times of crisis. We are reminded in the Quran that “whoever saves one life, it is as if he has saved all of mankind.” (Quran 5:32)

Your contributions will go directly towards providing immediate aid, such as cash assistance, food, winter necessities and medical assistance, to those affected by the earthquake in Turkiye and Syria. With your support, we can help bring comfort and hope to those in need during this difficult time.

Let us show the world the true spirit of compassion and generosity that is at the heart of our community. Donate today and be a part of the effort to bring relief to those affected by the earthquake in Turkiye and Syria.

May Allah bless your generosity and reward you for your efforts.

 

 

 

The Deadliest Earthquake in Two Decades

On February 6, two powerful earthquakes erupted throughout Türkiye over the span of nine hours. One of the deadliest earthquakes in over 20 years, over 7,000 have died and thousands more have been injured – and numbers are only expected to rise. One of the main areas struck was Gaziantep, a city millions of Syrian refugees call home.  

Islamic Relief is working with local partners to distribute immediate emergency relief. Across the country, families affected are receiving cash assistance to help pay for food, water, and medicine. Join us and help support your brothers and sisters in Türkiye and Syria in their time of need.

 

Focus on Türkiye

Türkiye is one of the more advanced nations of those we work in across Europe. However, it’s still severely affected by poverty. High unemployment among youth and gender inequality have led to a significant setback in the economy, and inflation is rising as resources such as gas and electricity are almost unaffordable. In certain areas of the country, climate-induced natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and forest fires are very common. To add, Türkiye is the largest refugee-hosting country in the world. As of last year, it’s home to nearly 4 million refugees, 3.5 million of which are Syrian.

 

 

 

Islamic Relief’s Dedication to Türkiye

​​Islamic Relief has been working in Türkiye since the early 2000s. Our goal is to provide emergency and long-term aid not only to residents of Türkiye, but Syrian and other refugee populations alike. 

 

A few of our interventions include:

  • Emergency aid for families affected by natural disasters including the Van and Izmir earthquakes alike as well as floods and forest fires
  • Humanitarian aid for Syrian and Iraqi refugees including access to basic needs such as food, healthcare, and education as well as orphan family support
