After the February 06 earthquake disaster, Sahibinden.com provided 25 million liras of support to the “Lend a Hand, Let's Build a House” campaign launched by the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye (TOBB) to solve the problem of permanent housing.
TOBB President M. Rifat
Hisarcıklıoğlu said, “The earthquakes centered in Kahramanmaraş shook us all
deeply. Since the first moment of the earthquake, TOBB and the community have
supported the region and we have endeavored to meet the needs of the region at
the highest level. The only way to make our citizens affected by the earthquake
in the region feel that they are not alone is to act in solidarity. The most
important need of the region is the construction of permanent housing. As TOBB,
we, together with our 365 Chambers and Commodity Exchanges, 65 Sector
Assemblies, Women and Young Entrepreneurs Boards, traders and industrialists,
rolled up our sleeves to build permanent houses for earthquake victims. In the
first stage, we started our Business World Housing Mobilization by providing 1
billion TL cash support as TOBB. Our
mobilization, which we invite our entire business world to support with the
slogan ‘Lend a Hand, Let's Build a House’, is growing day by day. Our company
sahibinden.com is following our call and making a significant contribution to
our Housing Mobilization. I would like to thank sahibinden.com for their sensitivity
and congratulate the entire Sahibinden family, especially CEO Burak Ertaş. I
would like to call on our other companies here. Come and donate a block, an
apartment or a brick. Let's all ‘Lend a Hand and Build a House’ together. With
your support, let's work for the future of earthquake victims.”
Sahibinden.com CEO
Burak Ertaş said, “After the earthquake disaster we experienced, our biggest
priority as a country is undoubtedly to normalize life in the region as soon as
possible and to work for the reconstruction of our cities and social life. It
is a very essential need for our earthquake victims to reach their permanent
residences and to rebuild their lives in the region. In this context, we find
the ‘Lend a Hand, Let's Build a House’ project implemented by TOBB very
valuable and important and we support this project with 25 million TL. We hope
that the entire Turkish business world will join hands with this project, which
was put forward with the valuable efforts of TOBB, and we will bring many
families to their homes as soon as possible. We will heal the wounds of the
region together without ever losing our excitement for solidarity and without
forgetting what we have experienced.”
