In his speech, Beşiktaş Deputy Chairman and the Head of Advisory Committees Mr. Erdoğan Toprak expressed his gratitude to all those who contributed to the project. “After Mr, Abülkadir Kerimoğlu, the Head of Beşiktaş Mardin Association informed us of the need for new school here, our Woman, Family and Children Advisory Committee headed by Mrs.Revna Demirören got to work immediately and made this wonderful project a reality. As a pioneer club of Turkish sports, we attach special importance to education. Sportive success doesn’t mean everything. Without proper education, it is difficult to appreciate sports, let alone advance in them. It is not fair to expect everything from the Turkish state, organizations such us must assume social responsibilities like this as well. If we can provide proper education to the children here, they will think more about the peace and brotherhood and engage less in violence when they grow up. From now on, Mardin will have a special place in our hearts. Beşiktaş is a club loved by all, regardless of their ethnic background, so the future belongs to Beşiktaş. ”
