Bread for Families in Need

For families facing hardship, a simple loaf of bread is a meaningful relief. Our Bread Distribution Project in Türkiye provides fresh bread to vulnerable families and refugees, meeting one of their most essential daily needs.

Clean Water for Families in Need

Access to clean water is a basic human need. Our Water Distribution Project delivers safe drinking water to refugee and vulnerable families in Türkiye, easing their daily burden and protecting their health.

Support for cancer patients
Medical Support

Supporting Cancer Patients & Families

Cancer treatment carries physical, emotional, and financial weight — especially for families already in hardship. Our Cancer Patients Support Project helps ease that burden, case by case.

Stand with them. Support their journey.

Winter aid: blankets and warm supplies
Seasonal Aid

Winter Aid — Warmth for Every Family

Winter is hardest on children, the elderly, and refugee families. We provide blankets, warm clothing, and heating supplies tailored to each family's need — helping them stay warm and safe.

Turn a cold winter into a warmer one.

Our Work

Immediate relief. Long-term impact.

Since our establishment on 1 April 2021, Meri Association has combined emergency response with sustainable development — supporting medical clinics, distributing essential medicines, running health awareness campaigns, and creating learning opportunities for children and youth.

We stand with orphans and vulnerable children through shelter, care, psychosocial support, and life-skills training — while delivering food, hygiene kits, and emergency aid to communities affected by crises.

  • Health: clinics, essential medicines, awareness campaigns
  • Education: school supplies, scholarships, informal learning
  • Children & orphans: shelter, care, life-skills training
  • Relief: food, hygiene, and emergency response
