The initial outreach for contributions has received enormous support. The Secretary General of the organization Egemen Bagis and the Vice President in charge of Relief Efforts, Nevzat Ayar, have announced that the funds collected in their special Earthquake relief account have exceeded $98,000 within four business days. Most of the checks come in handwritten envelopes along with small notes, cards and prayers that have been posted on a board at the Federation’s office at 821 United Nations Plaza. The board also indicates their goal, which is $5,000,000. -- They also acknowledged the cooperation of other organizations and expressed their appreciation for the support received during these times of sorrow. They stated that John Hopkins University’s SHARE (Supply Hospitals Abroad with Resources and Equipment) program sent large quantities of medical supplies and AT&T’s charity group, Telephone Pioneers of America has indicated interest to donate 2000 Hug-A-Bears for children victims of the earthquake. An anonymous company in Long Island has promised to donate 3,000 pairs of men’s working boots. Two of the Federation’s Vice Presidents, Mr. Onur Erim and Mr. Nurettin Caliskan are currently in Turkey helping out on the field. Mr. Bagis shared anecdotes of a telephone conversation with Mr. Caliskan who indicated that the scenes he witnessed are unimaginable… Mr. Caliskan’s own parents and sister lost their homes in Yalova. Secretary General Egemen Bagis said: "The death toll is expected to rise over 40,000 according to the United Nations’ estimates and hundreds of thousands are seriously injured and/or affected. The victims need our help. Our organization’s campaign will hopefully provide some relief to the victims of this tragic disaster. We are grateful to President Clinton and the U.S. media for their support. At this time we are accepting monetary contributions. 100% of the collected funds will be sent to Turkey. We are asking everyone to send their contributions by writing their checks to EARTHQUAKE RELEIF FUND and mail it to Federation of Turkish American Associations at 821 United Nations Plaza, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10017.
