Goal of the Activity

To unite the different sections of Izmir for a meetup aimed at purchasing gifts and donating them to a Kids Charity in Karsiyaka.

Description

Initially, all the participants gathered together by the seaside for a picnic, enabling everyone to meet eachother and share snacks. However, due to a sudden change in weather conditions, we relocated to a nearby café. To engage in a meaningful activity, each individual was provided with color pencils and papers, which prompted them to draw beautiful drawings for the children. After everyone completed their artwork, we proceeded to the closest toyshop, where we collected everyone's generous contributions and began purchasing the gifts. This phase of the event brought the most satisfaction to all involved. Once we were successfully done buying all the presents, we headed towards the charity organization in order to donate the items purchased.

2200 turkish liras was raised and donated during this event with 20 participants.
