In October 2019, Muhammed and Fatma Çakmak asked their wedding guests to bring an orphaned child to the celebration rather than present the couple with jewelry. According to Turkish media reports, approximately 100 children attended the wedding with the support of the İHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation’s Şanlıurfa branch. ‎ ‎The couple made the request together with their families, choosing to share their special occasion with children who might otherwise have been left out of such celebrations. Guests responded to their invitation by bringing children to the wedding, where they were welcomed and received gifts. The event focused on including the children in the celebration rather than making jewelry and traditional wedding presents the centre of attention. ‎ ‎The wedding gained attention in Turkish media and later resurfaced on social media, with reports highlighting the couple’s decision to make orphaned children part of their special day. Their initiative showed how a family celebration can also create an opportunity for community participation and support for children in need. The story was originally reported in 2019 and received renewed attention in 2026. ‎ ‎Disclaimer: This report is based on published Turkish media coverage, including Anadolu Agency and Habertürk, as well as subsequent reports. The details are presented as reported by these sources. ‎ ‎#Turkey #OrphanCare #Humanity #Kindness
