AKUT Foundation was established in 2011, following a unanimous decision at the General Assembly of AKUT Search and Rescue Association, by the team led by Ali Nasuh MAHRUK\u0130, the then Chairman of the Board of Directors of AKUT Association, after more than two years of preparation. <\/span>
<\/b><\/p>\n

The majority of AKUT Foundation’s managers and volunteers are also members of AKUT Search and Rescue Association. Again, AKUT Search and Rescue Association is a member of the Board of Trustees of AKUT Foundation and the first members of the Board of Trustees of AKUT Foundation were elected by voting at the general assembly of the association.
<\/span><\/p>\n

The two institutions, which exist as separate legal entities under the brand name “AKUT”, are non-governmental organizations that carry out successful social responsibility activities based on “disaster and emergency”, although they have similar and different fields of activity. <\/p>\n

In addition to public awareness raising trainings for disasters and emergencies, AKUT Foundation also carries out many social responsibility projects. For example, AKUT Foundation, which has the ability to act extremely fast in delivering humanitarian aid, especially technical equipment and personal protective equipment, to the region in disasters or emergencies, is a versatile non-governmental organization that carries out activities in many areas such as search and rescue capacity building of local teams, various theater plays where children are taught ways to protect themselves from disasters, and disaster awareness seminars in addition to such logistical support activities.

AKUT Sports Club Association was established in 2009 after more than two years of preparation by the team led by Ali Nasuh MAHRUK\u0130, the then Chairman of the Board of Directors of AKUT Association, in order to provide opportunities for young people who want to do sports, especially the athlete volunteers of AKUT Association.
<\/span>
Just like AKUT Foundation, AKUT Sports Club is a separate legal entity and is managed by volunteers. AKUT Sports Club, which has brought great prestige to the “AKUT” brand both at home and abroad with hundreds of trophies and medals to date, is a sister organization of AKUT Foundation and the two organizations share the same headquarters. The President of both institutions is Ali Nasuh MAHRUK\u0130, himself a national athlete.<\/span>

Although AKUT Foundation is capable of conducting heavy search and rescue activities within the scope of its educational and technical equipment and its organizational framework, it is positioned to take part in “education” oriented activities before disasters and emergencies. <\/p>\n

In disasters and emergencies, AKUT Foundation takes part in the field with services such as supporting the technical material and equipment needs of operational teams in the region and supporting local teams in the establishment of an incident scene management system.
