We established it without caring about any negativity in the world and in our country, and moreover, we established it full of hope in spite of the negativity. We also knew that we would ensure the support of the masses. We are experiencing this once again here today. We have made very good friends. We are giving scholarships to thirty-one students with the help of our donors and our foundation’s own resources. We feel the justified pride of this. The Foundation’s Commercial Enterprise has a large truffle and lavender field. By using the oil and hydrosol of the lavender produced in the lavender field, we have proven that it is possible to establish businesses that produce cosmetic products in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Health. We would like to thank everyone who did not leave us alone on this day.”

Thus, we have the opportunity to work with more enthusiasm. Our participants added joy to us. I would like to thank them.”
