Daily Sabah is reporting about the project led by Turkish children and their parents, aiming to provide protection to Syrian refugees during winter by knitting scarves and barrettes. According to the Daily Sabah, as part of the "Cozy Kindness Project" primary and secondary school students together with their mothers are knitting scarves and barrettes for Syrian children, which will be then sent to the refugee camp on the border.

"They are children like us and we share the same names. I feel happy helping them," said one of the students.
