About this record

GlobalGiving lists International Blue Crescent Relief and Development Foundation as founded in 2000 and vetted on its platform since 2021. The profile describes humanitarian assistance for disadvantaged communities. Its own website provides another route to examine the organization's current work and contact information. [1] [2]

The organization owns GlobalGiving project 58539, an emergency response to the 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria. Project reports describe distributions of water, food and blankets, as well as community centers, child-friendly spaces and health support. Those reports are evidence of the organization's project activities, not of an affiliation with the Turkish Red Crescent Society. [3] [4]

The disaster card below connects the project to a GDACS event record and a separate IFRC operation. Readers can compare the event measurements, the national society response, and the organization's own project account without treating them as a single data source. The GlobalGiving project is a historical funded record, so its page should be checked for current donation options. [5] [3]
