YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A GROWN UP TO CHANGE THE WORLD

TOPLUM GÖNÜLLÜLERİ VAKFI

Nazım Hikmet, Elvis Presley, William Lawrence Bragg and Mark Zuckerberg… Just a short list of people who achieved great things in their youth.

Is it just “grown-ups” that can solve society’s problems? After all, social responsibility isn’t just an effort than comes only from large institutions. Even a young person with good intentions and hard work can do great things.

Despite the fact that our society doesn’t always give young people the credit they deserve, the Community Volunteers Foundation (TOG) provides a wealth of opportunities for them. TOG is a non-governmental organization which operates in 80 provinces, works with 129 youth organizations and has completed over 9,000 projects. With more than 400 thousand young volunteers, our promotional film marking the foundation’s 10th anniversary tells the story of just some of those young people, and illustrates how the youth of the country is working to make Turkey a better place.

We worked with director Emre Başaran to celebrate the success of TOG and the young people which support it. Not only does it celebrate their efforts, but it shines a light on the fantastic results they have achieved.
