Charity organization Kimse Yok Mu continues its campaign in the holy month of Ramadan. Volunteers from the KYM went to the southeastern province of Diyarbakır on Tuesday and delivered aid boxes economically disadvantaged citizens.
Orphans were provided with clothes and toys while the families were given food packages. The KYM will continue to help its Ramadan campaign until the end of the month.
Recep Tanış, head of KYM Diyarbakır branch, stated that they conduct aid campaigns every year thanks to the help of the benevolent people.

Fethullah Gülen Offers Antidote For Terror
Fethullah Gülen responds as the voice of an intellect, in the name of Islam, to those who engage in brutal terrorist acts. His response is crucially important. Gülen presents a recommendation of culture based on tolerance. Thus far, the war against terrorism has been waged through the obstruction of terrorist activities, spearheaded by security units. It is impossible for Western countries to do more.
