The devastating earthquakes that hit 10 different provinces in Turkiye ruined the prospects of most of the youth in the region. 21% of Turkiye's population aged 0-17 and 10% of all university students in Turkiye are from the affected region. Either because their schools remain under the rubble or because they have experienced the loss of their families and livelihoods, many must now abandon their education in order to join the unqualified workforce and support their remaining family members. For their future, it is CRUCIAL that we help them REMAIN in EDUCATION. A scholarship may provide a lifeline for these families.

We, as TEV UK, have continuously acknowledged that the first stage of response is to support the immediate rescue and relief efforts.

However, now, we are moving into a stage of relief where we must think of the future. The future of young earthquake victims should not remain under rubble and providing them with the means to continue their education is the most valuable gift we can give them.

Join hands with TEV UK to help clear the way to a promising future they all deserve.

The funds we raise for Eduquake Fund will be directed towards the following objectives in cooperation with Turkish Education Foundation (TR):

1- 1000 New SCHOLARSHIPS

TEV has already provided one month of support to students (~£60) who had applied for scholarships for the 2022-23 academic year but were rejected due to capacity constraints. Now, with your contributions, TEV UK will extend further support to these students for another four months (March, April, May, June).

2- SCHOLARSHIP for 8 YEARS of EDUCATION

TEV UK would like to support students from the affected region with scholarships during their 4+4 high school and university years. The current total cost of supporting a student through these 8 years is £5,700.

3- 1000 LAPTOPS

Like all other belongings, laptops have also been left under the rubble. Students need laptops to continue their education online. A basic laptop costing around £425 can provide a student with the opportunity to join online classes.

We would like to extend a big thank you to you all from the bottom of our hearts.
