Early New Year Gifts for children!

People used to mock Mariam, calling her “crippled.” She can barely drag her feet. She falls constantly and can’t get up without someone’s help. God, what a torment! She needs rehabilitation and massage therapy to ease her suffering, but her family doesn’t even have enough money for food. You will cry when you see the conditions Mariam lives in. There’s no comfort in the house. A rusty metal container serves as a bathroom. She bathes in a basin, often slips and falls. And you can imagine what every fall means for her fragile body. Even to wash her hands, she has to go outside to a faucet. And bending over is nearly impossible for her. 

This is the Gurashvili family, a large family living in unbearable poverty in an old wooden shack. The windows are broken, the walls are cracked, and rain leaks through the ceiling. And what’s worse – the family doesn’t even own this awful shack. A kind man, who currently lives abroad, allowed them to stay there temporarily. But soon, he will return to Georgia – and he has nowhere else to go except this shack. That means the Gurashvili family, along with their three young children, will have to leave. But where will they go? They have nowhere to go. Will these little angels be left with nothing but the sky over their heads? Dear friends of the Fund, as I left the Gurashvili family, the sorrowful yet hopeful eyes of the three little angels who stood at the gate stayed with me the whole way from Kakheti to Tbilisi. These children have no one else to rely on but you. Please, let their faith in your kindness be rewarded. Let’s try – together – to heal the broken hearts of our little brothers.

Mari’s heart stopped for three minutes. Doctors miraculously brought her back from the brink of death, but she never regained consciousness—she fell into a coma!

And right now, she needs your help to stay alive. To do that, she needs continued treatment and rehabilitation. Please, reach out and help this beautiful young woman named Mari. She is waiting for your help with all her heart!
