We are deeply saddened by the earthquakes that struck southeastern Turkey and northern Syria, killed or injured tens of thousands of people, and left millions homeless. After two major 7.8- and 7.5-magnitude earthquakes on February 6, 2023, another massive 6.3-magnitude earthquake shook southern Turkey on February 20, 2023.

If you would like to help support those affected, here are some resources to consider:

Bridge to Türkiye Earthquake Relief Fund

Turkish Philanthropy Funds

UNICEF

United Nations

We extend our most profound condolences to all who lost their loved ones and homes.

Sincerely,
