I strongly believe in the value of volunteering as it not only enriches communities but also fosters personal growth and satisfaction. By dedicating time to help others, volunteers gain a more profound understanding of the challenges facing their communities, fostering empathy and a sense of responsibility. Moreover, volunteering offers unique opportunities for skill development and networking, enhancing both personal and professional lives. 

Earthquake in Turkey, 2023

In the aftermath of the devastating 2023 earthquake in Türkiye, I had the opportunity to contribute to the relief efforts through the Turkish Red Crescent. This experience was both humbling and profoundly impactful. This experience underscored the critical role of organized assistance and the profound difference that volunteering can make in times of crisis.

Translators without Borders

Volunteering with Translators without Borders has been an incredibly rewarding experience, allowing me to use my language skills to bridge communication gaps and facilitate access to vital information for non-English-speaking communities. Through my translation work, I have contributed to a range of projects, including translating health information during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It's profoundly gratifying to know that my translations help empower people with the knowledge they need to improve their lives and the lives of those around them.
