In Plano on Sunday, members of the Turkish Society of Texas accepted donations of everything from blankets and diapers to tents and generators.
"You know, so many of my friends lost their family members. They’re still under the concrete, the rubble. So even if we think there's no hope anymore, just this morning they brought out a couple of babies,” she said.
Organizers of Sunday’s donation drive were also finding comfort in acts of goodwill along with an opportunity to educate fellow Americans about their culture.With a table full of food, members of the Turkish Society shared a taste of Turkey with those generous enough to help.Organizers say the most desperate need now, beyond cash donations, is tents, sleeping bags and generators for the thousands left homeless.
Donations can be shipped or dropped at 3516 Bonita Dr. in Plano or at the warehouse at 2525 South Shiloh Road in Garland.
