Support Recovery in Turkey & Syria

Earlier this week, a massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck the countries of Syria and Turkey, creating devastating impact for over 13.5 million people. The Genetics Graduate Interdisciplinary Program sends our thoughts and prayers to the students whose families and friends have been affected.

We encourage support for the recovery efforts underway. Please consider donations to any reputable organization, with examples that you might consider including:

Doctors Without Borders | UNICEF | International Medical Corps

AFAD: Turkey’s official disaster and emergency management authority

AKUT: Voluntary NGO that performs search and rescue operations

AHBAP: NGO that specializes in helping people in need
