Earthquake This is a natural disaster in Hatay

Donation protected
Hi my name is Kasif(Kenny) Demir, I lived and still live in this tolerant and generous society for 25 years, in the UK, with my native wife and two wonderful loving children. Due to a natural disaster in Turkey, I am fundraising for my other family and relatives that lives across the gulf, who is in need of necessities. On Monday morning at 02:14, an earthquake at 7.4 up to 7.8 magnitudes, felt in my village by my sister who immediately sent me a text via WhatsApp, read"we are fine" she said! There where I was brought up and still all my sisters lives. They run out of clean water and food. It was a significant natural disaster that flattened 3000 buildings, 80% of the city centre in Hatay. It hit several provinces in Turkey, including my village. An earthquake has gone through aprox 12 provinces Turkey, and life for many has been destroyed and paralysed for majority of people. Over 1K people killed in this disaster including my brother-in-law and his little angel 5yo daughter. My nephew and his wife still under the rubble and cannot be found. All my family are trying with their bare hands and nails to dig and find any survival. Thus, several of my relatives cannot be found under the rubbles. Those who survived have run out of clean water and necessities. My sister-in-law suffered cuts and bruises and my ildest brother from a broken leg but thankfully both sirvived and still in the near by hospital-Adana. All of children are going through a very traumatic time. Whilst there are overwhelming support sent to Turkey, via authorities and establishments.

I am kindly asking for your help and support. Please and please, any of your donations is much appreciated.

All your donations will be paid directly to these people that lost their homes, those who lost their parents, and those who lost their children.


I would like to convey my profound heart-felt gratitude and thank you for your generosity.
