Nothing brings me more happiness
than trying to help the most vulnerable people in society. My heart always aches for those people
who have to live with an incurable disease or a health condition. And last year, I was blessed with the opportunity
to do an awareness campaign with the Turkish Red Crescent Society about how HIV is and also very importantly,
is not transmitted.

The campaign was called, "AIDS Start Reading". We told people that AIDS is not transmitted by
social behaviours, kissing, touching, caressing, hand shaking or hugging. It is transmitted via unprotected sexual intercourse
through genital secretions of the virus-infected person.Through blood transfusion and finally, but in my opinion most dramatically,
from mother to baby.
