October Events and Celebration: Join Us ??
TurkishWIN (Turkish Women's International Network)
If she did it, so can I!
Quick Updates
Dear TurkishWINners and Friends,
October is a month of reflection for us, dreamers and builders, to celebrate our sisterhood platforms.
October 21st marks our “Sisterhood Day,” and the birthday of BinYaprak.com, our giveback platform. Time flies by, BinYaprak is now 9 years-old!
While our story harvesting partnerships are on fire as we are planning amazing events with our partners, the Million Women Mentor movement is growing strong with almost 1500 volunteer mentors- 27% of them are our allies (go #heforshe).
We invest in our digital platforms and communities that scale with our collective input, giveback time, network connections and financial contributions.
Let’s take a moment to celebrate what we have achieved TurkishWINners! Now we know our legacy will not end with us.
With love and gratitude,
TurkishWIN Team
