Turkish-American association of Dallas,
TURANT, during Ercüment Kılıç's terms as president,
organized blood drives for the blood banks in Dallas.
Frequently the blood reserves are low in various parts
of the country. Anyone, or any entity can approach a
blood bank and ask them to send out a blood donation
truck to any where in the city. Then, the only thing
left to do is to bring in your people. Turks did that in
the busiest corners of Dallas with a huge banner on the
trucks saying "THE TURKISH AMERICANS ARE HERE!!".
Assimilation is wrong but how beautiful is integrating
into a new society in which we live, and contributing
positively?
Ercüment Kılıç
