13 March 2010 / TODAY’S ZAMAN, İSTANBUL
Muslim preacher Fethullah Gülen has donated $8,000 to support post-disaster relief efforts in the quake-stricken eastern province of Elazığ.
In the aftermath of the massive earthquake that struck rural areas in Elazığ, Gülen donated $8,000 earned from sales of his books and audio recordings to leading Turkish charity association Kimse Yok Mu (Is Anybody There) to support earthquake victims.
Among the first groups to respond to the Elazığ disaster, Kimse Yok Mu is continuing its efforts in the six villages affected. So far, 3,000 servings of water and juice, 100 boxes of food, 300 blankets, 50 rugs and 100 family-size packs of cleaning supplies and 110 boxes of winter clothing have been distributed in response to requests coming to the crisis center.
