CoinW One of Firsts To Take Action by Sending Disaster Relief Supplies to Help Those In Need in Turkey
CoinW, a world-class Cryptocurrency Exchange, has taken immediate action to fulfill its public welfare responsibilities in the wake of the recent catastrophic earthquakes in Turkey. It is believed that these earthquakes have caused more than 12,000 deaths in Turkey and Syria as of February 8th. The CoinW Turkey Operations Team has worked non-stop to gather relevant relief materials and contact local government agencies and charitable organizations to assist where necessary. Furthermore, the team has sent the first batch of relief materials to the earthquake-stricken area. An emergency response team was also established to continue monitoring the development of the disaster situation in Turkey and provide full support to the earthquake relief operations. CoinW is committed to actively providing assistance to the affected area and fulfilling its corporate social responsibility.
On the 6th of February, at 4:17 a.m. local time, Turkey experienced its first major earthquake of 7.8 magnitude. The tremor was felt in Syria, Lebanon, Cyprus, Iraq, Egypt, and Israel. Two days later, on February 8th, another earthquake of 7.8 magnitude struck the country at 13:24, followed by a 5.1-magnitude earthquake at 14:11. The earthquakes have resulted in the deaths of over 12,000 people in Turkey and its neighbouring countries.
The earthquake occurred under extremely harsh conditions, during a severe winter, and late at night. CoinW recognized the pressing needs of the affected areas and quickly raised funds for daily necessities such as heaters, blankets, sleeping bags, bedsheet sets, hygiene products, drinking water, clean clothes, baby food, power banks, winter boots and coats, scarves, and gloves. These materials were delivered to the disaster area on February 8th, providing much-needed relief and solving the urgent needs of those affected.
CoinW’s CEO declared, “In times of crisis, it is our responsibility as an enterprise to provide earthquake relief and assistance. We have acted quickly to support disaster areas as best we can. Ason of the world’s leading cryptocurrency platform, we are committed to fulfilling our social responsibility by assisting those in disater-stricken areas.”
At the moment, aftershocks are still being felt in the epicenter area. The World Health Organization estimates that up to 23 million people could be affected by the quake, including around 5 million people living in poverty. CoinW is monitoring the situation closely and supporting victims to rebuild their homes as soon as possible. Moreover, CoinW is calling on everyone to join the earthquake relief efforts and assist those in disaster-stricken areas to get through this difficult time.
