Yeni Parti donation campaign raises over 113 million lira in first 24 hours
Yeni Parti leader Özgür Özel launched a nationwide donation drive on 24 July, inviting citizens to contribute via the party’s official website (https://yeni-parti.org.tr/bagis/). The campaign required donors to include their name and phone number in the payment description. Within the first 24 hours, 31 934 people donated a total of 113 841 910 Turkish lira, a figure the party announced repeatedly.
Several parliamentarians from Ardahan, Muğla, Eskişehir and Aydın pledged a month’s salary to the fund, underscoring broad parliamentary support. Former Ankara mayor Melih Gökçek sent a symbolic 1 lira 3 kuruş (1.03 TL) donation, which the party promptly returned, stating “we do not mix halal donations with haram.”
Party officials, including group deputy chairman Gökhan Günaydın and finance deputy Özgür Ceylan, said the amount would be disclosed transparently and that the fundraiser would continue beyond the initial day.
