Maryland Turkish American Inhabitants

The Maryland Turkish American Inhabitants (MARTI) is a nonprofit and non-politically affiliated organization founded in 2003. MARTI strives to serve the local community’s social, spiritual, cultural, and educational needs through various activities or programs. Many of our activities build intercultural and interfaith bridges in our community through dialogue and solidarity. As MARTI, we take steps to aid in developing peace and unity in communities throughout Maryland as one of our fundamental goals. We believe that our programs and social gatherings contribute to creating friendship and unification to whomever we serve.

The volunteers help with the weekend school activities, which include helping with art and crafts classes, science activities, Turkish language classes, physical education activities for kids of age 6 to 11.
