BTF 4Kids Sets Make A Difference In The Lives of Rural Area Students…

Picture of Happiness by Bridge to Turkiye Friends and Volunteers

“Change is the end result of all true learning.” — Leo Buscaglia

Happiness, hope and change may arrive in different forms in different parts of the world… When a new semester starts in Turkey, they arrive as new colorful backpacks filled with school supplies in rural area schools…Then, it arrives with different BTF educational sets like Art4Kids, Books4Kids, Math4Kids, Science4Kids, EducationalToys4Kids, Dictionaries4Kids, Music4Kids, Sports4Kids, and SpecialCare4Kids…

BTF Backpack4Kids “One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.” — Malala Yousafzai

Let’s just imagine every student is happy, confident, excited and looking forward to starting school every semester. In rural and economically disadvantaged areas, it may not always be the case for all the students. That is why Bridge to Turkiye Fund was established back in 2003 as a volunteer non-profit organization…That is why all the volunteers at BTF are collaborating with each other to reach those kids somewhere in Turkey who are as smart as their fortunate peers but do not have the resources to have their dreams come true…

As BTF with the support of our donors, we make happiness, hope and change possible by delivering much needed school supplies to village schools every semester since 2004. Over the years, we have developed different educational sets based on the needs of rural area schools; and as a result BTF4Kids sets have come alive…

BTF Math4Kids “ Mathematics is the most beautiful and most powerful creation of the human spirit.”
— Stefan Banach

Our sets inspire and engage students in classrooms in the long run…The students are motivated to come to school and pay better attention than before. Furthermore, we manage to make change possible by reaching out to schools that are in the remotest parts of Turkey.

BTF Art4Kids “I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way — things I had no words for.” — Georgia O’Keefe

When we put together BTF4Kids sets, what we have in mind is to help rural area students realize their potential to be succesful, optimistic about their future and be happy going to school just like their more fortunate peers. We believe that if we want to help less fortunate students, we need to empower their teachers so that their teachers can motivate, educate and encourage their students to be hopeful about school and their future.

“A good teacher is like a candle; it consumes itself to light the way for others.” — Ataturk

But the job of rural area teachers is more challenging since they lack the resources they need. Their job can be rewarding and inspiring if they are provided with much needed classroom materials. As BTF volunteers, we realize how hard their work is every time we receive a letter from a teacher and we also witness their joy every time teachers send us photos of their happy students with the classroom materials that we send them.

BTF Science4Kids “If one day, my words are against science, choose science.” — Atatürk

Thanks a million to you, our donors who make reaching out to rural area students and teachers possible… You are the reason change have become achievable in these schools…

BTF Books4Kids “Books are knowledge. Books are reflection. Books change your mind.” — Toni Morrison

BTF Music4Kids“Music education can help spark a child’s imagination or ignite a lifetime of passion. Music education should not be a privilege for a lucky few, it should be a part of every child’s world of possibility.” Hillary Clinton
