My Thoughts About Ergun Gürsoy Holding:
I first became acquainted with Ergun Gürsoy Holding when I was admitted to Cumhuriyet University. If I am now studying at a more prestigious university, Ergun Gürsoy’s contribution to this achievement is truly immense. Everyone I communicated with through the foundation treated me not just as a scholarship student, but as their own family — like a son or brother. I, too, came to see them as my older siblings.

Beyond the financial support, feeling that I had people who stood by me emotionally brought me great happiness. As a sentimental young person, I truly felt that they would be there for me not only in my educational journey but throughout my entire life. If today I am able to set my sights higher and dream bigger, Ergun Gürsoy Holding’s influence holds an incredibly meaningful place in that. I extend my deepest love and gratitude.
