Seyidoğlu Gıda to Support Children's Education in Cooperation with TEGV

Seyidoğlu Gıda, a traditional-flavour producer with 70 years of history, has launched a charitable initiative to support education. Under a protocol signed between Turkey Education Volunteers Foundation (TEGV) and Seyidoğlu Gıda, a portion of revenues from sales of specially packaged halva will be donated to education support.

Under the education support campaign launched with the slogan "There Is Goodness In This Halva!", 10,000 units of 500-gram halva were produced initially and displayed in supermarket chains, sales points and all online sales platforms. A portion of revenues from halva sales will be donated to TEGV to contribute to qualified education support work. The halva packages will carry the TEGV logo and an informational QR code.

With each product purchased, consumers will directly support the donation campaign. Mehmet Göksu, General Manager of Seyidoğlu Gıda, stating that the campaign will run for one year until November 2025, said: "As a company, we always try to be among the first in all assistance and support campaigns to the extent of our capacity. With this project, our aim is to support our children, who are our future, to receive education under better conditions and to create societal awareness.

In Turkish culture, halva is not merely a dessert. It is also a symbol that carries deep cultural meanings, distributed in good times and bad, in our joy and sorrow. Halva, an indispensable part of our traditions of mutual aid and togetherness, will this time be produced for the worthy purpose of supporting education. By donating a portion of the revenue from each halva sold to TEGV, we want to enable everyone to participate in this campaign. We wanted to involve the consumer in our campaign by spreading the spirit of mutual aid throughout society," he said.

Expressing that TEGV's activities hold great importance in the field of education, Göksu stated: "We sincerely thank each of the thousands of volunteers dedicated to education activities. As a company, we wanted to contribute our share. We would be deeply honored to continue this support campaign for many years and lay a brick together with our consumers towards our country's future."

Turkey Education Volunteers Foundation General Manager Sait Tosyalı also said in his statement: "With the support of 100,000 volunteers to date, we have provided qualified education support to 3.2 million children. As we prepare to celebrate our 30th founding anniversary, we continue to meet our children at 73 activity points across the country. We are signing a meaningful and valuable project with Seyidoğlu Gıda, one of Turkey's established brands, in the area of supporting qualified education.

"There Is Goodness In This Halva!" Our collaboration under this project makes us very happy as it will create an important opportunity to raise strong, knowledgeable and confident individuals. Seyidoğlu Gıda's support is not merely a contribution to qualified education; it is also a long-term investment in our future generations. We believe that through our collaboration, we will bring hope to our children and contribute to societal development. We thank Seyidoğlu Gıda for their sensitivity shown to our children's education and development, and we wish our collaboration to continue for many years so that more of our children can benefit from equal opportunity in education."
