Holiday of Happiness

Dear ÖzÜ Family,

We keep learning during 2021 from the thing that 2020 brought to all humanity. Doing good, showing empathy, being compassionate, helping out and sharing are some of the crutial values that needs to be permanent in our lifes. And this past year helped us out to learn, feel and experience the importance of those values.  

As Community Engagement Projects Unit at Özyeğin Üniversity we work for to keep our battle on making sense of those values though creating social responsibility projects. One of them was Boxes of Hope, that took place last December in coordination with our Sustainability Platform. With this project we were able to help 191 families living in Nişantepe to meet their daily and basic food and cleaning product needs. Thank you all who contributed! 23rd of April is at the corner!
