SKY working group nominated Selim Temiz for the Kansalaisarena ry’s Volunteer of the Year Award 2021 and Selim got into the short-listed top ten finalists with his brilliant work. Selim Temiz arrived in Finland as a refugee from Turkey in 2018. He worked as a physics and mathematics teacher in Turkey and hopes to become a teacher in Finland as well. Selim says he volunteers because he is grateful for the help he and his family received after a long and tiring trip to the reception center in Finland. In return, he wants to help others in Finland. Helping people brings Selim joy, and the rewards are enough. We thank the voters and congratulate Selim on this success.
