Meet Gökçer Korkmaz, The Bighearted Volunteer Who Is Living With 500+ Animals

ADVERTISEMENT

When I found out about him, his lifestyle made my heart warmer.  He is a 32 year old man who is living in Kirklareli, Turkey with over 500 animals.

When he went to visit his family in Babaeski, Kirklareli he saw the wretched animals. And on top of it they were eating trash from the wasteyard and struggling for life. He decided to help them but there were so many of them. And they all need help. He dropped out of the university because he dedicated his life to this noble cause.

Since 2006, he is living for them. He loves them, builds shelters, feeds them daily and heals their wounds. Also he is a vegan.

Please don’t think I’m overdrawing him. He is doing one of the greatest things in the world all alone. I’m hoping that makes you to want to help and support him.

The term hero is often overused. This man is a true hero and a wonderful example of the difference one person can make. Thank you for all that you do :)

Sounds like a dream! I love how he goes beyond the typical pets and likes other animals like the goat.
