T\u00fcrkiye Diyanet Foundation (TDV) volunteers shared the joy of Eid with needy families during their visit to Niger within the Qurbani Program.<\/p>\n
As part of the 2026 Qurbani Program carried out by the Presidency of Religious Affairs of T\u00fcrkiye and TDV under the theme \u201cShare Your Qurbani, Get Closer to Your Brother,\u201d volunteers from T\u00fcrkiye conducted slaughtering and distribution activities across different regions of Niger.<\/p>\n
Traveling village by village, the volunteers delivered Qurbani meat to Nigerien families struggling with poverty and difficult living conditions. They also spent time with families, celebrated Eid with them, and distributed gifts to children.<\/p>\n
Families expressed their gratitude to TDV volunteers, deeply moved by the helping hand extended from T\u00fcrkiye. Thanks to this support, Nigerien families experienced the joy of Eid and once again felt the spirit of solidarity and brotherhood.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone is happy at their table because Turks are here\u201d<\/p>\n
Sanda Aoudi, the head of Karey Gorou village, said he has been a long-time supporter of TDV activities. He noted that the Foundation carries out such meaningful work in Niger every year.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cWe are very happy when volunteers from T\u00fcrkiye come. We always pray for T\u00fcrkiye. This is very important and beneficial for us. Some people cannot afford qurbani animals, and some families cannot eat meat, but because Turks are here, everyone is happy at their table. We thank TDV on behalf of our village. People in our village always ask me before Eid, \u2018Will TDV come this year? Will they slaughter Qurbani?\u2019 We are very happy that Turks are here again this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fatouma Souley, a local beneficiary, also expressed her gratitude, saying they love T\u00fcrkiye and are happy thanks to the assistance provided.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe shared the joy of Eid here.\u201d<\/p>\n
TDV official Hac\u0131 Mustafa Yal\u00e7\u0131n, who is in Niger for the Qurbani program, expressed his happiness to take part in the mission.<\/p>\n
He stated that TDV reaches thousands of people every year and said:<\/p>\n
\u201cWithin the 2026 Qurbani program, we carried out the slaughter of entrusted qurbanies of our nation in Niamey. Together with our volunteers, we traveled village by village and delivered these entrusted donations to our brothers and sisters here. We celebrated Eid with Nigerien families, shared their joy, and brought smiles to children\u2019s faces. We experienced the joy of Eid together with them here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t\t
