Our Values

Our Mission

Darülaceze's mission, as defined in 1895, continues to exist today with the same spirit:

“To provide a life of dignity, security, and love for every person in need, regardless of their faith, identity, or age.”

Our Vision

We are building the future by drawing inspiration from the past.

Darülaceze is not just a care institution, but a structure that represents the social conscience of Türkiye.

Our vision is to redefine this heritage according to the social, digital and cultural realities of the 21st century and to spread life models based on human dignity throughout the country.

Within the framework of the 'Turkish Century' vision, our goal is to create a pioneering system that:

achieves international standards in social services,

• integrates with society,

• establishes a sustainable financial and voluntary support model,

• prepares individuals for active life through education, production and rehabilitation.

Our Basic Principles

• Dignity-Based Care
  For us, every individual deserves respect and compassion at every stage of life. Protecting and strengthening human dignity lies at the core of our services. Every service we provide in the fields of healthcare, care, and social support is designed to help individuals feel valued.
• Participatory and Transparent Governance
  Darülaceze adopts transparency and accountability as fundamental principles in its decision-making processes. We maintain open communication with our employees, volunteers, donors, and the individuals we serve, taking every step with a sense of responsibility toward society.
• A Community-Integrated Service Model
  We view Darülaceze not merely as an institution, but as an inseparable part of society. We deliver our services in close connection with the community, building heartfelt bonds and responding directly to needs. Our social activities, joint projects, and local partnerships are the most tangible reflections of this approach.
• A Sustainable, Innovative, and Measurable Social Impact Approach
  We believe that our services should shape not only today, but also tomorrow. Therefore, we produce sustainable solutions, develop innovative methods, and aim for continuous improvement by measuring all our social impacts. In this way, we create lasting value for society by using our resources in the most efficient manner.
• A Conscience-Driven Economy Growing Through Volunteering and Philanthropy
  The heart of Darülaceze beats with a culture of volunteering and philanthropy. Our volunteers and donors strengthen our institution not only with their financial support, but also with their moral commitment. This conscience-driven economy is one of the finest examples of solidarity and love for humanity.
