Small businesses are not only well positioned to support urgent needs, but they can be a critical part of long-term recovery, including rebuilding infrastructure, getting people back to work, and making sure communities have what they need to live healthy lives.
Supporting Local Business-Led Recovery
Building Markets' network in Türkiye includes more than 2,500 small businesses representing over 135,000 people, and more than half are Syrian refugees living in earthquake affected areas. These are people who are grieving and worried about the safety of their families, and they are also first responders and humanitarian heroes.
Our work to help our businesses position themselves to win contracts will become even more important in the coming months. When aid dollars go to local businesses, they make three times the impact: they bring relief to those who need it, secure livelihoods and restore local markets, and offer dignity & hope to those whose lives have been devastated.
