Award Ceremony and Disabled Projects


Dear Dosts,
I wish you a happy Feast of Ramadan. These days require peace, support, sharing and caring each other. Violence or conflict are not the steps to be taken. I hope every person spends peaceful and lovely days during these sacred days.
We are going to realize the 7th International Award Ceremony of ICT Seagulls on 9th October 2010 with the great support of sarıyer Mıunicipality and City council. It will be held at Enka Schools, İstinye, Sarıyer and all the participating circles will get their awards. We are thankful to the Mayor Sükrü Genç and also to the head of the governing body of City Council, Mr.Adnan Ayber. We are looking forward to seeing you there.
We are adding more projects to the work we conduct with and for the disabled dosts. A new İmece has just started at Gürpınar with Ramazan Baş and his wonderful team to support the disabled ones living there. The disabled sosts are learning to solve their problems through İmece Circles. Another step of it is a book, namely: Removing Obstacles with Empathy. It will have been printed by the end of this month.
With love and peace...
