February 23 According to the report of the famous Arsenal reporter Simon Collings of “London Evening Standard”, Arsenal and charitable organizations
Partnered to donate 1,500 sleeping bags to earthquake-stricken areas in Turkey and Syria.
Arsenal have made a donation to Save the Children through the Arsenal Foundation to further support children, families and local communities.
Arsenal teamed up with the Turkish Cypriot Community Association in North London to assist the local disaster area. After contacting the local people, the association found that Turkey urgently needed sleeping bags.
Arsenal and the association procured 1,500 sleeping bags, which will then be distributed to those most in need.
A truck full of sleeping bags was driven to the airport by a delegation last week, and the cargo will be airlifted to Istanbul, where it will be distributed to areas affected by the quake in Turkey.
The person in charge said: “We cannot stand by and watch people suffer in the earthquake-stricken areas, we need to reach out to the Turkish community and related supporters in the North London area and offer our support.
After investigation, it was found that sleeping bags were the priority. In less than a week, we got 1,500 sleeping bags and prepared to send them to Istanbul.
In addition to this assistance, we have also brought our love and hope to the people in the affected areas from the North London area.
