"AKUT Search and Rescue Association
Founded in 1996, AKUT is the leading search and rescue organization in Turkey with locations in 32 provinces, supported by 200 permanent members and thousands of volunteers. The organization trains to be prepared for the moment when catastrophe strikes, given the unsuspected nature of natural disasters.
“AKUT has been at the affected disaster zone from the beginning with 641 volunteers as well as search canines,” AKUT wrote on their official website. “So far, we have taken part in rescuing 39 people from under collapsed structures and we are determined to continue our mission until we know that we have everything in our power to help rescue lives. You can support us by wire donations directly to our bank accounts.”"
