More than two dozen US-based charitable organizations are on the ground in Turkey and the Syrian border to support earthquake victims. The ASH Foundation USA began its relief efforts in Turkey. Over the last three days, hot meals have been organized for 3,000 people daily in Malatya one of the areas affected by the earthquake. It introduced Bangladeshi "Mehmankhana" in Chittagong, organized by the Alhaj Shamsul Haque Foundation, where all hungry people participate regardless of party-like-religion-caste-gender. On February 17th, Foundation Chairmen Nasir Uddin told the Muslim News Network that ten generators were distributed in Turgut, Adina. On February 18th, "Mehmankhana" will continue to hit the most affected areas. Victims can get containers, solar water heaters, solar room heaters, hygiene products, and sanitary pads through a program run by the foundation. The Chairman of the Foundation Engineer, Muhammad Nasir Uddin, monitors all the work directly from the field.
