Education for Children, Work for Adults
Every year, thousands of seasonal agricultural workers pour into different districts of Turkey for the harvest of various products. The families and children of these seasonal workers live in tents or outbuildings that lack basic necessities such as clean water, warm food, hygiene and safety. Apart from the poor living and working conditions, children of seasonal worker families end up missing out on a third of the school year and many leave school altogether.
Aside from taking away their right to an education, being a seasonal worker also negatively affects the children’s quality of life, their development and their future. Those who spend their childhood in the cycle of seasonal work, thus unable to receive the benefits of schooling, are kept from developing vocational skills as well.
Each year we use the support that received to prevent child labour by reaching the children who are trapped in the cycle of seasonal work and providing them with the services they need. We promote children’s well being in harvest areas by distributing food, clothing, personal care kits and stationery materials with proper trainings as well as providing scholarships for entire school period.
You can support a seasonal child worker for one year, during the harvest season and the school terms, by donating 2.000 TRY and ensure that s/he is going to stay in school.
