We hope that as many people as possible will be found alive under the rubble of destroyed cities, and that those who survived the catastrophe will be provided with support and care.
In the current academic year, University of Lodz hosts nearly 200 students from both countries affected by the catastrophe. We unite with them in these difficult times as they think about the safety of their loved ones that they had left at home and we declare to provide any type of help.
At the same time, I appeal to the University of Lodz community, which has already shown its great attitude in moments of crisis many times, both for the emotional support for our Turkish and Syrian colleagues, but also financial support for relief operations.
You can do this by joining one of the verified collections:
Collection for the AFAD foundation,
Collection for the Polish Medical Mission,
or other, reliable campaigns.
We are also enclosing a list of item collection points sent by the Turkish Ambassador to Poland, Cengiz Kamil Fırat: Page 1, Page 2 (in Polish).
I believe that we will once again show how big hearts the UL community has.
Thank you all in advance
