IN MOTION:
TÜRKIYE-SYRIA  EMERGENCY RESPONSE

Good Neighbors is already in motion to support children and their families in the midst of the widespread destruction caused by a devastating earthquake in Türkiye and Syria.

Situation

A devastating earthquake struck Türkiye and Syria on February 6th, causing widespread destruction and taking thousands of lives. The 7.8 magnitude quake, followed by two more powerful earthquakes and innumerable aftershocks, has left over 43,000 people dead and 120,000 injured. In addition, over 80,000 people have been displaced and thousands more are still trapped under the rubble. (Source: TRT Haber, February 17, 2023)

Good Neighbors dispatched a rapid response team to Türkiye and assessed the most significant needs of the impacted people. However, the situation on the ground is dire, with temperatures falling below freezing overnight, making conditions even more difficult for survivors and displaced people.
