YTU students participated in the 46th Istanbul Marathon in collaboration with the Tohum Autism Foundation, contributing to a meaningful social cause. This initiative aimed to raise public awareness about autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and support access to quality education for children with special needs. By volunteering as motivation supporters throughout the marathon, students actively demonstrated their sense of social responsibility, solidarity with marginalized communities, and commitment to promoting inclusive education, equal opportunity, and overall well-being for all individuals.
