TRABZON - Anatolia News Agency


The Turaaa branch of the world's largest independent conservation organization has launched a special campaign for Mother's Day this Sunday.

By making a small donation of YTL 25 to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) one can contribute to the organization's efforts to reduce the harmful effects of global warming in the name of their mother.

Talya Enriquez project coordinator of the “Canım Annem” (My Beloved Mother) campaign said a meaningful gift from a child to their mother is more valuable than an expensive one. Enriquez said WWF Turaaa's gift to mothers is nature.

Those who would like to contribute to the research and actions undertaken by WWF Turaaa can do so simply by donating YTL 25 and receiving a beach set that includes a bag and a towel designed specifically for mothers.

“We tried to make an attribution to the very fact that living in a healthy climate is everyone's right” Enriquez said referring to the fact that the beach set as a gift for Mother's Day has an emblematic meaning.

“Given in return for a donation amount of YTL 25 the beach set and a certificate by WWF Turaaa will symbolize your contribution in the name of one's mother to our studies on global climate change. Such a gift would be very meaningful for one's mother” Enriquez said.



‘With the love I have I can even stop global warming'

WWF Turaaa will send a certificate to the mothers of each donator which reads "My dear mother this present I have bought to contribute to the survival of this beautiful world where you gave birth to me symbolizes hope for a healthy climate. With the love I have I can even stop global warming.”

Also part of the campaign are sets of slippers and handbags designed especially for this occasion with the theme of global warming and the slogan “I'm warmer than I'm supposed to be” Enriquez said.

The slippers and bags are decorated with prints of caretta caretta the loggerhead sea turtles visiting Turaaa's Mediterranean shores each year to lay their eggs.
