Yeşilay Kars addiction awareness campaigns

Overview

The Yeşilay Kars Branch in Turkey has conducted various community outreach initiatives focused on addiction awareness and healthy living.

In late July, the branch performed a door-to-door campaign targeting merchants in the Kars city centre. Volunteers provided information on the risks of tobacco, alcohol, drug, gambling, and technology addictions, while emphasizing that combating addiction is a “shared societal responsibility.”

Following this, in mid-August, the organization shifted its focus to youth by hosting an educational and recreational event for students at the İlim Yayma Cemiyeti Quran Course. This program utilized age-appropriate games and group activities to promote healthy habits and social skills while educating children about the organization’s mission to combat addiction.
