"Breathing Center" was opened in Ankara. Disabled individuals can be dropped off at centers for up to 30 days a year.

Göktaş also visited the "There is Kindness" stand within the scope of the program, then visited the handicraft workshops in the business and occupation unit and examined the products made by disabled individuals.

In his statement to journalists after the visit, Minister Göktaş said, "We opened Ankara's first Breathing Center, a center where disabled families can leave their children for up to 30 days a year, especially in times of need." he said.

Stating that the center has a capacity of 24 people, Göktaş said that separate units have been created for men and women.

Reminding that they opened a similar center in the Beylikdüzü district of Istanbul, Göktaş stated that they have opened 48 centers so far and that they aim to spread this throughout Turkey within a month.

Göktaş stated that one of the biggest needs of disabled families is to find a place to leave their children when they have surgery, go out of town or if something happens to them, and that they opened a center in Ankara that meets exactly this need.

Stating that Saray Barrier-Free Life Center serves 779 disabled individuals, Göktaş explained that social and cultural activities, as well as rehabilitation, are carried out in the campus consisting of 73 detached villas.

Göktaş stated that disabled individuals work in design and wood workshops at the center and are supported with sports activities, and that there are 53 licensed disabled athletes in the center.

Emphasizing that they attach importance to directing disabled individuals to culture, art, agriculture and sports, Göktaş noted that many steps have been taken for disabled individuals under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and many services, from home care assistance to disability pensions, from day services to boarding institutions, have been expanded throughout Türkiye.

Stating that services are provided completely free of charge to disabled individuals staying at the center, Göktaş continued his words as follows:

"They are our children, entrusted to our state. The Breath Center has actually become a very valuable service that responds to the needs of our disabled families. In addition to our work and service policy, we stand by each and every citizen in need. We strive to stand by each and every member of our great Turkish family. Our Barrier-Free Life Center is also a product of the vision put forward by our President."

Minister Göktaş stated that they have expanded the Goodness Var Platform throughout Türkiye and underlined that they aim to make philanthropy more visible and spread kindness throughout the country with the platform.

Pointing out that the Turkish nation has an understanding that loves solidarity and helps those in need, Göktaş said, "However, in an environment where evil is so widespread, it is now essential that we make goodness visible." he said.

Stating that citizens can voluntarily register to this platform via e-Government under state guarantee, Göktaş noted that volunteers can evaluate their skills in centers that provide services for disabled individuals, the elderly and children.

Minister Göktaş invited all citizens to volunteer and register to the İyilik Var Platform.
