BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Robbinsville, NJ Donates $25,000 to Embrace Relief Foundation to Support Earthquake Relief Efforts in Türkiye

In response to the devastating earthquakes in Türkiye, the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Robbinsville, New Jersey organized a special prayer assembly on February 25, 2023, for those affected by the humanitarian crisis. The community members at BAPS offered support for the people of Türkiye through prayer and a generous donation of $25,000 through its humanitarian relief arm, BAPS Charities, to the Embrace Relief Foundation.
As hundreds of thousands are fleeing the disaster zones and being displaced from their homes, Embrace Relief Foundation has been continuously responding to the essential needs of those affected. The donation will aid relief efforts in three key areas: food distribution, housing assistance, and emergency supply distribution. At the core of Embrace Relief’s mission is delivering sustainable solutions to achieve immediate and lasting improvements in situations of humanitarian emergency.
The CEO of Embrace Relief Foundation, Osman Dulgeroglu, expressed gratitude towards BAPS for organizing the event and for their generous donation. "I am truly overwhelmed by your generosity and cannot express how I feel about your unwavering support during this difficult time. Thank you for your support. It will bring hope and comfort to many who have lost everything." Members from Turkish Cultural Center, New Jersey, and Central Jersey Community Center were also present to take part in the event.
The BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Robbinsville, New Jersey, is a community dedicated to supporting those in need. Through various charitable programs, the organization strives to improve the lives of people around the world.
