Tofaş, the well-established organization of the Turkish automotive industry, continues to focus on people and social benefit with its holistic approach ranging from production to marketing, from sustainability to social responsibility activities. Tofaş Theater Club, which was established in 2005, is preparing to re-stage the play “Amphitryon 2000 – Where Were We Left” in memory of Haldun Dormen. The income from the play, which will be staged on April 20 at Istanbul Süleyman Seba Culture and Art Center, in cooperation with TÜMKAD (All Women Engineers Association) and Biletinial, will be transferred as scholarships to young female students studying engineering through the Turkish Education Foundation (TEV).
The musical play titled “Amphitryon 2000 – Where Were We”, staged by Tofaş Theater Club and written by the great theater master Haldun Dormen, inspired by Plautus’ play Amphitryon, opens the curtain in memory of the master artist who passed away this year.
All income from the play, which will be staged at Istanbul Süleyman Seba Culture and Art Center on April 20, will be transferred as scholarships to young female students studying engineering through the Turkish Education Foundation (TEV). In this meaningful journey, TÜMKAD (All Engineer Women Association), founded by female engineers from Tofaş, which aims to increase the contribution of engineer women to the Turkish Industry, to empower and prepare women against the competitive conditions in business life, and to ensure that they reach a high level of competence, stands out as one of the important stakeholders that adds value to the project.
Tofaş CEO Cengiz Eroldu: “We Create Long-Term Value”
Evaluating the project, Tofaş CEO Cengiz Eroldu said, “As Tofaş, we do not see value creation as limited to production and commercial success. People and the future are at the center of our holistic approach, which extends from production to marketing, from sustainability to social responsibility. This project, which was implemented with the voluntary contributions of our employees, is one of the strongest reflections of our corporate culture. We believe that such works that contribute to the education of young people, especially young female students growing up in the field of engineering, create long-term value.”
