YDA Education Culture and Solidarity Foundation
Established following the decease of the founder and honorary president of the YDA Group, Yaşar Dede ARSLAN, and dedicated to his memory, the YDA Education Culture and Solidarity Foundation aims to meet the basic needs of vulnerable families and communities irrespective of language, religion, race, or belief in Turkey and abroad with the condition that such aid is in conformity with national unity and solidarity. The Foundation further grants non-refundable scholarships to successful young people with limited resources so that they become beneficial individuals to the society by improving themselves. The selection of education grant candidates is grounded in principles of equality.
