Charity run is a method of fund raising for non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Before participating in national or international events, runners reach out to their family, friends and acquaintances, inform them about the NGO’s project they support and call for donations. Adım Adım is the first civil society organization established in March 2008 to promote and popularize the collective charity run in Turkey. Adım Adım provides financial resources and promotional support to important social responsibility projects of our country through endurance sports. TEMA Foundation joined the network of NGOs supported by Adım Adım in 2013.
The Before It Burns Forest Fire Education and Awareness Project aims to reach young people who will become ambassadors for forest fires, increase their knowledge and awareness on this issue, and facilitate peer education and events to spread this awareness to more young people in their own provinces. By creating memorial forests in the name of the participating young people, the project contributes to nationwide afforestation efforts and the fight against erosion.
With every donation of 800 TL, one young person receives training as part of the Before It Burns Forest Fire Education and Awareness project and the Before It Burns Forest is created.
