As Bacacı Investment Holding, we have added another initiative to our efforts aimed at promoting inclusivity and raising awareness across all sectors of society; we visited the Turkish Down Syndrome Association to “Create +1 Value for the Future.” During our visit, we held a pizza workshop where we came together with individuals with Down syndrome in the same kitchen. While contributing to their active participation in social life and fostering mutual understanding, we also experienced the joy of creating together and solidarity.
As part of World Down Syndrome Day on March 21, the pizza workshop program at TDSD—which included volunteer employees from Bacacı Investment Holding—began with an informative seminar aimed at raising awareness about Down syndrome. Following this, participants had the opportunity to get to know one another better through icebreaker games and fun activities with individuals with Down syndrome. The pasta and marshmallow activities held throughout the day provided enjoyable moments that highlighted both creativity and team spirit.
The most vibrant moments of the event took place during the pizza workshop. As the pizzas, prepared to the rhythm of music and dance, were placed in the oven, participants shared the joy of both creating and spending time together. A warm smile graced everyone’s face throughout the day, and a sincere love filled their hearts.
During the emotional sharing session at the end of the program, the value of the time spent together was felt once again. This special gathering was a testament to love, inclusivity, and togetherness.
