A message from our chairman

Our responsibility to those in greatest need

It is my honour to extend my sincere thanks and greetings to the dedicated people working in volunteer and charitable fields.

At IHYA Charity we direct support to sustainable development projects, aware of our responsibility to help those in greatest need in a lasting way, as an expression of the solidarity and mutual care our faith calls us to show our brothers and sisters.

I extend my deep thanks to His Excellency Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, President of the Republic of Türkiye, builder of its renaissance, whose generous hand reaches the oppressed everywhere; and to the members of his government and every benefactor and volunteer for their constant and fruitful giving.

And success comes only from God.

Our vision

وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا

“And whoever saves one life, it is as if he had saved all of mankind.”

Qur'an, Al-Ma'idah 5:32
