As TÜRGEV, we experienced the spirit of loyalty, dedication, and corporate belonging together at the special evening where we honored our colleagues who have contributed their efforts for 10 years or more.
08 July 2025
Located in the heart of Istanbul’s Kısıklı, TÜRGEV’s Headquarters hosted a deeply meaningful gathering on the evening of Sunday, July 6, 2025.
Held under the theme Loyalty to the Years Spent Together, this special night not only expressed our gratitude for the years behind us, but also strengthened our faith and excitement for the journey ahead.
Institutional Memory Written with Dedication
Since 1996, for more than 27 years under the roof of our foundation, which supports the education of young people across Turkey, we have never forgotten our valuable colleagues who have devoted themselves with dedication for 10 years or more.
The plaques and gifts presented by our Chairwoman of the Board, Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz, and our board members took their place on this meaningful evening as symbols of loyalty, stability, and institutional commitment.
For us, these special awards were not only a sign of years of effort, but also of loyalty, continuity, and wholehearted dedication. Each plaque, accompanied by applause, turned into moments where our gratitude was expressed aloud. This night became a symbol of collective loyalty, etched into TÜRGEV’s institutional memory.
“Our True Strength Lies in Our Sincerity”
In her speech that left a mark on the evening, our Chairwoman Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz expressed her gratitude to everyone who contributed with the following words:
“TÜRGEV’s true strength lies in your effort, your sincerity, and your faith in this institution. Our hopes are fresh, our intentions are pure. I am fully confident that together, we will continue our journey with the same dedication and excitement.”
Our Chairwoman also shed light on the vision for the new term, announcing that with online meetings to be held on the first Thursday of every month, we will determine strategic goals together and blend volunteerism with professionalism.
Rising Institutional Values in the Sisterhood Ecosystem
At TÜRGEV, we are not merely a foundation, but a large family walking heart to heart, united in the same belief and prayer.
On this night, the sincerity and dedication quietly woven through the years resonated in each other’s eyes without the need for words.
The bond we call sisterhood neither fades with time nor disappears with distance; on the contrary, it is reborn at every meeting.
The ecosystem we have built together is the voice not only of today but of tomorrow as well… Because we know that planting hope in the life of a young girl is to nurture the future.
From June to July: From the Effort of the Past to the Hope of the Future
On this special night, we saluted not only the efforts of the past but also the dreams of the future.
As TÜRGEV, by saying Loyalty to the Years Spent Together, we honored the past while recalling how the steps we took in June turned into the hopes of July:
İbn Haldun Graduation Ceremony: We witnessed the brave steps of our youth.
GİF Exhibition: We made dreams visible.
Love for the Homeland Theater: We shared the feeling of belonging.
Peer Bullying Workshop: We strengthened the bond of sisterhood.
Dormitory Education Modules: We transformed living spaces into areas for growth.
Qurban Donation: We amplified the social power of sharing.
At every step, we continue to nourish the vitality of our young girls with knowledge, art, and solidarity.
The Strength of the Path We Walk with Goodness Lies in Institutional Loyalty
This night once again showed us that TÜRGEV’s true strength is not only in its projects, but also in the bridges it builds between hearts. Every step taken with sincerity, every dream that grows together, binds us more strongly both to each other and to the future.
We are glad to be on this path.
We are glad to be together.
