settle the food is donated 7 days a week, must have her picks it up from the campaign and assemble. he never knows what will be on the menu that day. his father founded the organization some 10 years ago. it's called the shana, which his turkish for soup kitchen. to day only the found his son is on the road. he's running late, the traffic in is stumble, has held him up, knowing that so many people are waiting for him, makes him nervous. good are no longer father gets gums once i arrived later than usual. an unhealthy gentleman approached me and told me that the food we brought was the only meal he cat. each day. he asked us to never be late again. we're may, you ought to at least warn him if we were going to be sure to have it. it really

shook him up. if julius rachel sat returning the food is distributed in the inner courtyard of a mask in the fattest district across the street. nice. the city hall, which is just as uninvolved as the state itself. as mister for pulls up, there seems to be trouble. once again as so often nightly, turkish, and house people and migrant on house people have got into an argument or show oliver good thing. you're here, you should see those 2 over there, around the 16th, not on tell me, i'm not supposed to give them any food and they need to go to the very back of the line that they've been arguing for over half an hour to week is what i'm like though it's just 2 men from. busy can you deal with them yourselves? what do you want me to do? i have it will only i glue

some 200 people wait here every evening. more and more refugees are among them. in turkey, sentiments towards migrants have increasingly solid, as many believe they are being favored over the local population. but mister fer doesn't care who comes here or why i was a judge. could i please have you are noodles? sure, no problem and palmer from yahoo and we are through the controller. sorry . it's not arranged. the food is very tight told. thank you. i must have her tells us that poverty is one of the largest drivers of homelessness here, drugs and alcohol, unless of a problem than in western europe to day hums. that has come to help. he's been living on the streets for years and has volunteered here for quite

some time. this is also gonna help out because i too am affected by homelessness. and i want to do something good for the community. like the trouble. it keeps me busy and i hope it will help me find my way by surrounding me with good people and teach me to learn from my mistakes. all of you built the folder without the looks good. honda has made plenty of mistakes in and from as he'll tell us later for to day he and mister for a finishing up. it's time to move on to the next district where more a waiting for a warm meal, you know, go with it. ah,

a stumble. the city that straddles 2 continents, tourists appreciate its beauty and liveliness. but in the past years, poverty has been on the rise, exacerbated by economic crises and a growing number of migrants around 18000000 people live here. and there are no where near enough jobs to go around. it's a slippery slope from unemployment to homelessness. and here on the bus for us, it's easy to lose one's footing. and the government refuses to accept responsibility. i sure experienced this 1st hand raised in berlin. she was a young woman when she came to turkey, where her husband forced her into prostitution. she made it out that she had to sleep on the streets in

the district of bay alou. she now runs a little cafe. unhealthy people can get a free meal. here. i shall see. this is her life's work. almost every one here knows ayesha whether from her time's in need or now as a helper there, impressed that. come on just one more picture, the shops closed today. don't go back then. nobody was that to help her. she still dealing with the wounds that inflicted them back then i couldn't find any food each other was nobody i could talk to and i had to hide the fact that i didn't have a home to be open with you. i have to do things like where the same underwear for 38 days in a row fellow. today she's meeting shuler, a volunteer at the cafe. the to a going to buy groceries for the week. they're heading towards the market in the

district of tyler bussey. it's a simple part of town with mostly low income households. i should come here to shop because the price is lower than at the supermarket. oh hi. how are you today? can i please have 5 your past or one of our shaneka you've got a thin, flat bread. that's the foundation of many turkish dishes. but today's prices take ayesha back on phone call. well, not in the beginning of the corona virus pandemic was one kilogram with 5 pieces of ranch cost $8.00 laira. now 5 piece is cost $15.00, narrow the iraq. that's quite them aka. as a toilet in the past, mom, this price is in turkey, have shot up. meanwhile, the turkish lira has become weaker and weaker. in these circumstances,

many haven't been able to afford food and rent. i don't want to let you know what you know. it reminds i sure of the time she spent on the streets, she would often go to market and gather leftovers from the ground or search garbage cans for whatever was still edible. my bill, her 2 by make the move. i 8 old bread thrown away at burger king or mcdonalds, or left next to the ash been at the hospital, the service. and yeah, that's what i survived on. i'd say for about 4 and a half months, almost finished the leftovers that you didn't want that you thought didn't taste good, but that's what i age. his lift up the service because the fact that prices have nearly doubled in such a short time, even here at this market is becoming a bigger and bigger problem for ayesha and her team at the cafe. ah janice for exams on the prices keep going off.

this we get by thanks to donations home phone number, people help us as best they can look at how long will they still be able to help with this struggling to get by themselves. you know longer than i, she has an important appointment coming up next week. she'll make a public appearance and tell her life story to attract new sponsors. she's going to need them in order to keep the cafe running. a stumble has the highest population of all turkish cities. nobody quite knows how many on housed people live here. some $10000.00 or estimated the government keeps no official census on the matter and has otherwise also remained widely passive when it comes to helping those on the streets. every 3 months,

those in need receive about $25.00 euros. that's just enough to buy one cup of tea a day. temporary shelters are also provided. sometimes, mostly in large holes. we me tanser again whom we'd 1st met while he was working with muster to beat the cold at night. he often spends hours wandering through the eye. yup. sultan district. many islamic saints are buried here. living on the streets has brought him closer to islam. to a little over here, the gravestones, i feel safe and i can learn about the lives of these st. so then i will leverage all the descriptions, tell me how they lived over the years, which trials they had to overcome. hello there. hello la song, chicken hands. they used to lead an entirely different life. he was the owner of

a small textile business. but when his tax adviser cheated him out of a large sum of money, comes a shot at him and went to jail. to day he says he's a different person. in part, thanks to muster far is reasonable. i've watched him fight for people without making any distinctions. that is so well. that's when i told myself it was time for me to change. now i'm trying to find my place in society, give me global, literally give me just given his past. it's been hard for him to get back on his feet in turkey. he can't find a job and he can't find a home. for now, he sleeps in the courtyard of a small mask. the mom has permitted him to lie down here for a few hours each night. as long as he's gone before the 1st morning, prayers. every thing he owns is stowed in a bag toilet though it galion was culturally

shady resumes. commotion. what a lot. you leave the toilet unlocked so i can use it. deletion 0. they get, they know i won't break anything till monday or so. well, when i leave the morning due, so i take extra care to leave everything clean and in good order was out of the michigan over. i don't want the community to fill imposed upon the russel dumas so she will secondly of motion. him come to him. whereas the mask will remain empty until the early morning hums. i must brace himself for another cold night in its grounds, and yet he's grateful. it's still better than sleeping in the park. ah,

mister fi is also worried about how harsh the winter is becoming low and he and his father have rented storage space where they collect used close some blankets there sorely needed in the past years, several on house people died of cold muster for knew some of them personally goose live up. this blanket is the only thing stopping some people from freezing to death danielson, but often one blankets isn't enough to dazzle at home. we also grab a 2nd blanket even when the heater is turned up. i was with daniel ramos to cover for that. you must murmur. in the coming days, he plans to distribute blankets to those on the streets. but today he has different plans in the cans in kind of a kia quarter. a number of refugee families are living precariously must defer,

and other volunteers bringing them some basic necessities to day. he's visiting a syrian family. another muster for has brought them coal for heating. the family is going to need it to get through the winter. they don't have a heater just a small oven. hi, how are you? looking well, well, thanks. what's your name? muhammad. my name's mr. far along with this family has been living in turkey for 5 years. the father is a french teacher, like many refugees here. he struggles to earn some money as a day laborer, but that isn't nearly enough to make ends meet. jeron, how high as the rent, maria judah, as for how much money, don't go ramble hostels, $900.00 lire. could you?

the apartment is very old and drafty askew. the windows aren't sealed properly, they are more choked. okay, of course, there are better apartments available so much good. i'm about. we could never afford them. the keel is done. will you only be one among thousands of similar cases? this family too, has spent nights on the streets. you must have foresees this as proof that the governmental agent, even with the e u migrant fund, is nowhere near enough to the turkish population. refugees of the scapegoats to blame for hardships to the turkish government, their pawns in a political chess game loose on their way with didn't get to them. we don't want to leave these people to the whims of states and government john mitchell, where we are here to help me is that officer, my libby blankets and some encouragement cluster. i think this is a blessing for society and an opportunity of marianella demo. blue met,

begin cham solidarity as a blessing and opportunity. not only for others, but also for one's own personal growth. not many see things the way must have her does. ah, ah, people often say is gone. bull is a city that never sleeps at night. some are busy at work while others venture out to experience the night life. others still don't even know where they can sleep tonight. in turkey, it's the communities that are responsible for carrying for their homeless. in istanbul, this job would fall to die, roll at u. z translated, it means the poor house. the organization was founded almost

a 150 years ago during the ottoman empire. to day it runs several reception centers . throughout his stumble, the cities social democratic administration, does more for an housed people than past administrations have, at least according to its head, was added to our unit in your personal printer to social workers. keep telling us that turkish families look out for each other, talk yoked at us, but what you see behind me are the results of broken homes and migration from anatolia, the search of a better life related to civil, you'll be on call. good call. we spent 3 months an attempt at the i was at the show as

a god called her, we became scared of the children felt ill and they didn't have any warm clothes. people can only spend a maximum of 6 months in is stumbles, city shelters. after that they have to leave regardless of whether they found work or not. many say they don't want to risk losing whatever space they found for themselves. so they prefer staying outside i sure is skeptical about public aid, even though it's improved, it's still not enough. that's why she founded her initiative in 2017. with the help of another organization. the concept is simple. during the day, it's a normal cafe. at night it becomes a center for an housed people. they currently serve about a $150.00 meals

a day. as more and more keep coming i, she says she can tell more help is needed then is that if i don't do it, who will love? i used to not have a home either for fun and the government register the government, the law. what a joke that the turkish state doesn't recognize homelessness, not rosa, which i'm we used to go and visit those same governmental buildings to talk about homeless quito. but we were told none were registered to your mother or wherein earth we supposed to register them. us. so it's up to you. yes. to day a group of young students is helping out. they'd learned about the cafe through social media. i should story has made them think. oh edge roman london. most of us are struggling to get by to look than i mean,

nobody has the time to take a look around. every one is so preoccupied with themselves that goes in latino society needs to learn that many people habit, far worse than modern, but hardly any one ever. notices. due to corona virus restrictions on housed guests are currently not allowed to eat indoors. instead, everything is packed up and handed out. i should takes great care to ensure the food is fresh, has plenty of veggies and is always a little spicy that helps against the cold. she says that fish as i'd never serve anything that i wouldn't eat myself. it's always warm. skin was a warm meal. bombs, just like mom's cooking. dozens are already waiting outside the cafe. i sure and her team ask us to put our camera away. some he never told their families where they were going. they simply opted vanished

in just 20 minutes. every one has got a meal. for some, this is the only food they've had all day. meanwhile, the busy night life around them continues, unfolded. people here have become accustomed to the sight of poverty. this indifference pains ayesha. she still feels that same stinging sensation of being invisible. her work at the cafe she tells us is also a way for her to process what she went through. i sure how do you feel after daylight this or i feel good to le zabel. i feel very good as well. not samantha sloan. i know that 142 people got dinner tonight, but come home and now have a warm meal in their bellies. her lava says,

in a few days, she'll be visiting a convention where she hopes to find more sponsors for her cafe yoko. you may go over. what gives her the strength and motivation to carry on. why has she dedicated her life to serving and housed people? the answer takes us far to the southeast of turkey, to the city of garcia and tech home to an estimated to 1000000. many move here from is stumble to escape poverty, few ever succeed. this is where i she has spent her short childhood before enduring the, unspeakable. when she was 9, her uncle raked her over the course of several months. it was the end of her childhood. she says, years later, she was forced into prostitution. when her husband sold her to a pimp, this was also where she lost her home. whenever she visits gaussian tip, she's haunted by her past,

like as the goblin. you linelle k wouldn't even sell me, brett here. very difficult dish will because of your past them? yes, because of my past when i run their muscles comfortable, much. oh, forgot it. whenever i she comes to gaussian tap, she picks up some things for her restaurant in his stumble. because she's most interested in bringing regional spices back to the boss, boris m. o hermiston center, she is or what love to learn, a little of, i am for long, some of the shop owners still know what i used to do and what i do now. they are happy to see me, which friends are sin. uh, but if i were to come here every day and buy groceries, they would cast sideways glances at me. often. they wouldn't accept me. as i said, we join, i shall on her way to shave camille, a district of gaussian tip. he

a new building sprawl. crowding out much of what eustace dante, including an old brussel, it was one of 7 across turkey in which i sure was abused for years. i. she refuses to even set foot on the property. men should guess the male guests would come in through the entrance with him and gape at us as if we were in a new, in humble song. paul, we'd stand at the window like in the red light district in hamburg, and they'd stand at the window to yvonne out of the. i'm fleming. we stood there like flamingos on one leg. i'm from 10 in the morning from for a law until 11 at night. say it was awesome, but i went through a lot of escape was out of the question for ayesha and the other women trapped there. the pimps kept a close watch on them. forced prostitution is not rare in turkey.

yob middle school, they forced themselves upon us was in whatever fantasy they had that they couldn't live out at home in their marriage, goals they would enact with us i if you add it up and it was clearly right. right. each client us that came meant another rate garza hutton maria, and who protected us be apples. nobody this is when i she was born. her family doesn't live here anymore on her relatives never forgave her for the past she endured. that's why i, she doesn't want to see any of them. and she certainly doesn't want to encounter a for my client, which was history of my club. i don't know who brought my body. hi. don't know how many people i late with here. this is like the, i don't know,

i was the barbara who goes to school a little in spite of all her terrible memories, i should tries to visit gaussian tap at least twice a year. this is where her father's grave is. he's the only family member, she still respects he was also a member of the 1st generation of guest work has to emigrate to germany. it's been slots hoffman. i'm proud of my father then. yeah. if he was still alive and could see the restaurant and everything i've achieved with my organization and the last 45 years, he'd be so proud of me, brought it up from store for him as his ac woodland. and in case he's watching over me from above and explore, i bring him a little something each year he of us. what would you like to tell him? which helped us i made it shorter shift. i managed to stay clean,

is up this of the sub lab i didn't have to resort is had back english butler and i was able to create works myself, mia, i dob, and enable others to find work through me. thin lesson soon, i sure will attend a convention in a stumble to attract more sponsors. ah, he stumbles district of ne shanisha. this is mother wealthy, come to live and shop. many tourists also find their way here, mostly from the emeralds. they're here to take advantage of the week turkish lira and to make expensive purchases to keep such lucrative visitors coming. the city relies on gentrification, edwin's government, his toned,

an entire neighborhoods to make room for pompous buildings. if they don't want to end up on the streets, former residents are often left no other choice than to leave the city. as this is the ologist, most of her has been observing this development very closely. now a family that he's known for years is worrying him. they are at risk of becoming homeless, rulers mer can so can't house re so started here we can see a type of social injustice that is typical for this city. there were 2 types of lives that couldn't be more different dishes. if you look around, you can see that this family is destitute. they have no alternative described to me . the mother is old and sick. she's undergone the surgery several times. there are

many local wiki, sandra elkins over there, talk know, junction must have her take a look around. what's it like here? the woman doesn't want to be filmed. the refrigerator only has some leftovers in at some bananas. does this to work so? sure. oh yes. it's a classic welfare case that nobody others and must def, i will help them believe you some coal for heating and i was just thinking about you the other day. i thought you had forgotten me. i tried calling you, but my phone is broken. what ever shall i do? mustafah williams. oh oh oh. oh oh oh.

oh. after he visits the family must have a heads to the hush and pasha mosque in the district of cutaway, where food is prepared for the unhealthy, and those in need must have her picks up soon pay almost every day. ingredients are donated by members of the congregation with us on the will m. m. a project actually started last mosque. good and called glen live graham. again, it means a lot to me. they prepare food here that has been donated for several reason within . that's an attribute that many mosques of last, nowadays, taken alter tacoma from there, actually supposed to be a focal point and support center for the neighboring community. she had him. yeah,

some back. is it? how can the cook tells us that many mosques used to cook for the poor and on housed to day? it's more of an exception than the rule. many mosques even shut their doors after evening, pres. they've come to be more of a separating force than a uniting. one is looking like a list of what we want a community to be actively engaged in helping others. another will self. that's important to us. she the home, if other people see her well, this here is working, it might inspire them to follow our example. oh look also got some garage on level ocean city must. if i was raised to religiously to this day, his faith plays a large role in his life. but he understands religion differently to most other believers. he's most concerned with the social aspect din article, my list of these days. sadly, religion has become more of a routine or

a theory than anything else. i mean, all the work. anybody knows that strictly following religious rules doesn't make you a good person. as i say, bureaus, annie, so me if you can pray as much as he wants out of it or god doesn't ask us to pray that much because it's more important regardless of which faith he follow with yet more get it. you know, there is that you keep your faith and responsibility and harmony for that and we will then be the most likely the athletic number for you. oh, the time has finally come to day is i shes big appearance. she's trying to attract new sponsors at an is stumble, conference. many large brands, a representative. this is a rare chance i ship and she's come, well prepared. how do you feel? are you nervous to move all finished? you've all. no, not at all involved. i woke up at $5.00 if i'm used to it,

i know what i want. i want people to acknowledge us thus to load you and i want them to see that if someone like me can make it up. that's why shouldn't others be able to as well. i sure wish it's almost time a number of potential sponsors are seated. among the view is ayesha has 15 minutes to convince them. oh, if we ask you for a narrow room, then you give it to us. but that won't, philip pennies is what we people on the streets need our work food and life. one mera won't feed me a bottle of water costs 2. why do we only ever gave away things that are old? and only ever after we bought

a replacement. why don't we give to others with the same right? fisher, from the moment i, she does well. she delivers her speech convincingly and without sounding nervous. oh, oh, she weaves in her own story for authenticity. now she and her team are waiting for a potential sponsor to approach them and tell them, well then comes the good news. they've got one a well known nutritionist has contacted a poultry deliverer and the company is willing to supplied the cafe for 2 years. i went to london and i keep asking myself how i could end up in

a boldenow and then on the streets. it was a terrible time. so my fish, if i had met people like you back then, then we could have been doing good for 20 years instead of just for them. but we hopefully still have 20 more years ahead of us in the cinemas. i hope so. we should embrace life in one another and i hope we both the long and healthy lives. i'm so glad. there are people like our sunday class the next day we catch up with i share it, assembles famous toxeme square. she's off work today and about to make friends. as the metropolis bustles around her, she turns inward. despite heavy just landed a new sponsor, she's worried about the future. the rich keep getting richer while the poor are getting poorer. and the state does nothing but watch.

mom job this people aren't wound on the streets and they shouldn't die on the streets. whoever holds one of these id cards should enjoy certain rights. but in turkey, the topic is absolutely 2 came up. we don't want to see it one moment. we don't want to open up to it. why not? aren't which human to? we just dirt. i don't think so. most of us organization is in the was could our district this evening on the asian side? as is always the case on days like these, the line as long. hm says here to helping out. he's not having a good day. like i sure he too is plagued by the thought that his life and the lives of other on house people like him. a stuck in an endless cycle on days like

these, it feels like there's no escape, no matter how hard he tries. which result calisha removal of. i'll be honest with you for that ala while life. i haven't let myself be discouraged foreclosure. it's now i sleep in the streets. if i regret having served this country's military and even having paid them taxes, vertigo, their mother he most of us view, it's not just the responsibility of the state to address the needs of and housed people in turkey. any one can pitch in if only a little. sometimes it's enough to simply lend an ear yonder as of how many of us actually know how a neighbor is doing. we don't care about other people's problems one little that this hectic life from the loneliness of the large city there more than that at night. when we go to sleep, we can feel that something is missing, but it's the fact that we haven't done

a good he validated in some ways, most of his work, his quixotic. but without volunteers like him, the situation for many people on the streets in turkey would be far worse. we haven't seen hamza must have his helper for days. it's as if he's vanished. we set out to look for him. he said to have last been seen in ballot at the golden horn. it's a poor district that is popular with an housed people. sure enough, we find tanza here. bernard has commercial infrastructure for an housed people, such as laundromats, showers, internet cafes on 2nd hand stores. as

ali pasha has almost anything, an unhappy man like hums, i could ask for leslie ultima all to morrow? sure. what is the laundry piled up here comes from practically all over the world and it belongs to 4 or on house people from pakistan or bangladesh. and of course, to locals in the city of boston over here. and house people can have their laundry done and take a shower for just 15, leora, or about one year. salish purchase business is a social one that may the lives of many people who are on housed or in need vizier . hamza has managed to find clothes in. sally pushes 2nd hand stores. you shall but

his trouble finding a home remains. although you're worn more foreigners keep pouring in, but drives to prices up here. for example, prices for a simple room. i've gone up from 20 to 80 lira altered. i can't keep up with that really. i can't afford that strong low search on that though, or kill. and i sure she keeps feeling drawn to the company of those who reluctantly cold, the streets and squares of assembled at home. she talks to them once to understand their worries and offer support wherever she can for 11 on. she knows what it's like to not be able to grab a bite whenever hunger strikes the way she sees it. the economic crisis along with the rising number of refugees make it necessary for the

state to do more to help those who have fallen by the wayside. but i she and her team will keep up the flight with ah ah for her, the only way of appealing sunny my willa is africa. first female bri master. as well as the country 1st black woman to found
