Cap Anamur is an organisation which is helping refugees worldwide.

In 1979 Christel and Rupert Neudeck, together with a group of friends, formed the committee "A ship for Vietnam" and chartered for the rescue mission the freighter "Cap Anamur" named after a cape off the Turkish coast. The journeys of "Cap Anamur" (and her sister ships) were - against the predictions of many "experts"- a huge success: 10,375 Boat people were rescued from the sea and a further 35,000 were medically treated.
