Who we are
For people. For their dignity.
KARDEŞDER began in 2013 as a volunteer movement of young people in Bursa, Türkiye, and was formally registered as an association in 2018. Today our field teams work across a region stretching from Syria to Chad and from Gaza to Afghanistan. We deliver aid to the people who need it, record every step and publish the results.

Where does your donation go?
The five steps a donation takes before it reaches the people it is meant for.
Donation
Your gift is recorded for the programme you choose, whether you give through our online platform or by bank transfer.
Planning
Our field team prepares a needs list and sets the place, date and recipients of the distribution.
In the field
Supplies are sourced in the region or prepared on site, supporting the local economy wherever possible.
Delivery
Aid is handed to the people it is meant for, in the field. If you wish, your name appears on the distribution sign.
Reporting
Every distribution is recorded on photo and video, published on kardesder.com and shared with the donor.
Reports
For us, accountability is not a choice. It is a responsibility.
Together, we can do more.
Be part of the good: donate, volunteer, or let us work together with your organisation.
