KABUL
International charity association Kimse Yok Mu delivered food packages to the Afghan people living in a refugee camp in Afghanistan capital Kabul during the holy month of Ramadan.
Arriving at the camp, volunteers from Kimse Yok Mu distributed food packages to around 160 families, which was met with great gratitude by the people.
One of the volunteers named Arif Demircioğlu told Cihan news agency that although it was difficult to reach the camp, it is considered to be best charity of the world since people in the camp are in huge need of any kind of assistance under extremely harsh conditions.
Hizmet Movement is not interested in attaining political power in Turkey or elsewhere in the world
[Erdogan] has called Hizmet a state within a state, which to me is a strange characterization. To me, that’s like saying that the Catholics are a state within a state in America, or the Jews, a state within a state in America. Those kinds of statements are derogatory, they’re pejoratives. Catholics have a right to seek influence in America; Jews have a right to seek influence in America, that’s how we operate here.

Businessmen voice frustration over smear campaign against Hizmet

The Gülen Movement and Turkish Soft Power*
The Gülen approach to education aptly demonstrates the group’s global strategy—Gülen movement schools are open to both Turkish migrants and citizens of host countries, and they avoid advancing a religious agenda. These schools aim to help Turkish migrants succeed in their host societies without losing sight of their Turkish roots, and at the same time they promote social unity by serving the needs of migrants and local students alike. The success of Gülen movement schools stems both from the success of the students (and the satisfaction of the parents) and from the prestige and goodwill they enjoy among local and political authorities for promoting integration and acting as a social mediator.
