The Northern California Turkish American Association packed up more than 200 boxes in East Palo Alto to send to people affected by recent quakes in Turkey.
“Maybe a child will open a box that has toys," Ozisik imagined as she fought back tears."Even if one single item reaches the right person, we are OK with it.”
In Turkey, people are still being rescued from piles of debris, though hopes of finding more survivors alive are fading. After hearing about the earthquakes, she went looking for ways to help and brought her friends to join in packing supplies in East Palo Alto. While focus is on the earthquake aftermath now, Eser and many of her fellow volunteers are hoping the international community continues to provide aid for Turkey and Syria, as the need will be immense and long term.
