Established in 2010 with the support of a few volunteers, the Haydi Tut Elimi Association carries out activities to closely engage with children who have been subjected to neglect, abuse, violence, and pushed into crime. The association, which conducts preventative mental health, well-being, and positive psychological resilience efforts for the protection of children and young people aged 0-18, operates with the aim of supporting them in the process of their reintegration into society, return to family, and completion of social rehabilitation.

The association's board of directors meeting was held at Uskudar University Central Campus Nermin Tarhan Conference Hall, and the new management was determined.

Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan: "We have touched many lives through the association."

Haydi Tut Elimi Association Board Chairman, Uskudar University Founding Rector, Psychiatrist Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan, stated in his opening speech at the general assembly that the association was founded 11 years ago: "Since 2010, we have touched the lives of many people. Serious projects and works have been carried out. These are done by our donors. We receive from our donors and record them transparently in our activity reports. We add to them and deliver them to those in need. We carry out our activities as part of the university's social responsibility."

Prof. Dr. Tarhan: "The majority of donors are women."

Noting that donors are extremely pleased to see their aid reach its destination, Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan said: "80-90% of our donors are women. They clothe children with their own pocket money. Diapers are bought. As an association, there are individuals who are orphaned, whose situations are documented by the state, who are over 18, and whose state support has weakened considerably. They cannot find jobs. We have been very beneficial to these individuals. There are legal gaps, they cannot find jobs. Children can be left stranded. We tried to help these children and young people. We do all these as silent good deeds, but today this silence was broken. We called it silent good deeds, but we also wanted to announce the work done. While aiming to encourage such good deeds, we also wanted to show that we are open and transparent."

Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan thanked all donors, the association's management, and association employees.

Following the opening speech, a presidential council consisting of Murat Koşar, Ayşegül Şekli, and Fatma Turan was formed.

A. Banu Güngenci: "We supported the opening of 75 homes. We provided scholarships to over 100 students."

A. Banu Güngenci, Secretary-General of the Haydi Tut Elimi Association, stated in her opening speech that they act in coordination with the Provincial Directorate of Family and Social Services, saying:

"We strive to reach all young people leaving institutional care. We support young people in setting up homes. We provide assistance with goods, rent, and clothing. To date, we have supported the opening of 75 homes. We help them pay their bills. We provide regular scholarships to students residing in institutions and studying at university, within our means. To date, we have provided scholarship opportunities to over 100 students. Our volunteer psychologists and psychiatrists assist our young people. Our volunteer lawyers provide support in our young people's cases and follow-ups. During holidays, we dress our babies and children. We have brought smiles to the faces of nearly 5,000 children with material and clothing aid. During Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice), we distribute sacrificial shares. More than 250 shares have been distributed to date. During Eid al-Fitr (Ramazan Bayramı), we distribute cash aid from the association's official account under the name of provisions and sharing costs," she said.

A. Banu Güngenci also noted that they work in cooperation with Uskudar University Student Clubs, stating that they bring children from children's homes to the university with the support of student clubs, set up workshops, and organize events. Güngenci said, "We are just a bridge. That is, we are a bridge that connects the donor with the person to be donated to. Thanks to the campaigns organized by our association and the donations collected from philanthropists, we deliver aid to those in need 12 months a year."
