TURKISH FOUNDATION FOR CHILDREN IN NEED OF PROTECTION (TKMCV)
Turkish Foundation for Children in Need of Protection (Koruncuk Foundation) Founded in 1979, Koruncuk Foundation aims to establish and maintain “Children’s Villages” for youth who have no families or whose personal existence is at risk. This effort ensures that these children can live to have a healthy development in a family environment, receive education and training and develop their personal skills.
Each year, ÜNLÜ & Co regularly contributes to Koruncuk Foundation through its volunteers and donations with the intent to cover the costs of education, healthcare and living of young girls in need of protection and being raised in the loving environment of the Foundation’s Children’s Villages.
