The flooring will be used to rebuild two community sports centers in Gaziantep and Hatay, areas heavily damaged by the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes. The centers will serve as safe spaces for children and youth to engage in sports and recreational activities, aiding in the psychological and social recovery of the communities.
Limei’s technical team traveled to Turkey to oversee the installation, working with local NGOs and construction teams to ensure the facilities are completed quickly and safely. The donated flooring is the brand’s Budget-Friendly School Series, chosen for its durability and ease of maintenance, which is crucial for long-term sustainability in the affected areas.
“Sports have the power to heal and unite communities, especially in times of crisis,” said Mr. Zhang Wei, Limei’s Global CEO. “We are honored to contribute to Turkey’s recovery efforts by helping rebuild these vital community spaces. Our thoughts are with the people of Turkey, and we will continue to support relief efforts wherever needed.”
The first sports center is expected to open in September 2025, with the second following in early 2026.
