29Ekim2009Dear ATASC Community,

On behalf of the ATASC Board, I would like to celebrate 29 October, 2009 Republic Day and wish you all many more such happy days under our beloved flag and on the path illuminated by Atatur’’s principles.
On the 86th anniversary of our Republic, we are enthusiastically thinking about the ways we can live up to the legacy of Ataturk and our heroes who did not hesitate to give their lives for Turkey, and carry our country to its deserved place in the 21st century as envisioned by our fathers.  In this exciting journey, ATASC is very much aware that our first goals should be supporting  each other and working harder than ever, and as your organization, we will continue to proudly serve you in line with your  desires and expectations towards this direction. 

Yours Sincerely,
Vega Sankur

Değerli ATASC ailesi,
ATASC Yönetim Kurulu adına 29 Ekim Cumhuriyet Bayramınızı kutlar, bayrağımızın altında ve Atatürk ilkelerinin aydınlattığı yolda beraberce huzur ve gururla geçireceğimiz nice bayramlar dilerim. 
Cumhuriyetimizin 86. yılında, belki her yıldan daha yoğun bir şekilde, vatanımıza, Atamıza, şehitlerimize ve Türk milletine hizmet vermiş büyüklerimize nasıl daha iyi layık olacağımızı düşünüyor, medeniyet yolunda bir bütün olarak Türkiyemizi hakettiği hedefe nasıl daha yaklaştırabileceğimizin planlarını yapıyoruz.  Bu heyecanlı yolculukta en onemli unsurun birbirimize kenetlenmek ve yorulmadan calişmak oldugunun farkında olarak, ATASC ve ATASC Chapter’ lari üzerlerine düşen görevleri sizin de destekleriniz ve fikirlerinizle gururla icra etmeye devam edecektir. 

Sevgi ve Saygilarimla,

Vega Sankur

ATATURK’s Corner

Ataturk dedicated 23 Nisan, the anniversary of the Turkish National Congress in 1920 to Children. His vision was:

FUTURE BELONGS TO AND IS PROTECTED BY FUTURE GENERATIONS.
He expressed it best when he addressed Turkish Youth:"

"O Turkish Youth! Your first and foremost duty is to defend and protect the Turkish independence and the Turkish Republic for all eternity. All the mighty strength that you will need exists in the noble blood a-flowing in your veins!."

Mustafa Kemal Ataturk

ATASC SCHOOL IN IZMIT, TURKEY

ARSLANBEY ATA-SC OKULU On August 17, 1999, western Turkey was struck by a devastating magnitude-7.4 earthquake. Many thousands of people were killed, and many more made homeless by the quake that was centered near Izmit. Contributing to the rebuilding process, ATASC initiated an effort in February 2003 to build a new school for the children of Izmit. The school admitted its first class on September 13, 2004. ATASC still continues to support its namesake school.
Since 2006, ATASC sponsored 13 needy children, helped send 6 children to Space Camp Izmir, opened up a Computer Lab and a Science Lab. Most recently ATASC helped the school to open up a pre-school by furnishing four pre-school classrooms named for ATASC chapters. VATAN Chapter is currently in the process of furnishing a conference salon for the students of the elementary school.
