Maya Foundation was launched in October 2015 in Turkey to provide psychosocial support, community awareness and integration of Syrian and Turkish children. The leadership of the foundation is driven by the desire to fuel more public-private partnerships as a response to the complex needs of families and children in crisis.
We dream of a productive society, open to exploration, devoted to helping others, filled with healthy individuals who have had a free and safe childhood. We established Maya Foundation with the aim to create a safer and more desirable world for children and youth; to support their academic, mental and physical development, to create a future where they can express themselves freely, think creatively and reach their full potential.
