On February 27, 2023 (Monday), HUFS visited the Turkish Embassy in Seoul to meet the Ambassador of Türkiye to Korea Murat Tamer and send a warm message of condolence by delivering the well wishes and donations from Koreans that HUFS has collected for the country after the devastation of the recent earthquake.
As this year marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the HUFS Department of Turkish and Azerbaijani and the 100th anniversary of the Republic of Türkiye, HUFS and the Turkish Embassy in Seoul decided to discuss joint action plans and other measures for co-development to help the country overcome the devastating earthquake.
Through a recent campus fundraising drive, HUFS collected a total of KRW 35,680,000 in donations, including those from its faculty and employees. The HUFS donation drive was joined by 1,302 people from the HUFS community, signifying its full-hearted support for the disaster-stricken country.
