#5 The Man Who Changed the U.S. Political Landscape for Turkish-Americans
In February 2007, Yalçın Ayaslı founded the Turkish Coalition of America. Since 2009, the TCA has organized 16 Congressional Delegation trips to Turkey and has taken more than 155 members of Congress and senior staffers to Turkey and surrounding countries. Beside TCA, Serpil and Yalçın Ayaslı family founded the Washington, D.C.-based Turkish Cultural Foundation in 2000 to support cultural projects in Turkey and share Turkish culture with the rest of the world. The foundation began working with the World Affairs Council of New Hampshire to send American teachers to tour Turkey in 2007.
