We are so happy that our videos and posts have an immediate reaction! Gio Sisauri from a large family dreamed of a birthday with a cake and guests. This post deeply touched his wonderful teacher Ani Buzaladze, and she immediately gathered Gio’s classmates. On his birthday, the unsuspecting Gio was surprised by his entire class with hugs and gifts! We are moved by Ani’s actions and thank her from the bottom of our hearts. Similarly, with tears of joy, we thank all the friends of the Fund who have significantly helped the Sisauri family in such a short period of time.

Not long ago, the eyes of the four little Berdzenishvili children from Saguramo were filled with sadness and fear. The little angels were eating dry bread.  Eleven-year-old Dachi went to school in old clothes. The beautiful sisters – Barbare, Nini, and Anastasia – dreamed of toys and new dresses. The children slept on rusty beds, and their bones ached. The children’s father is ill and unable to work, and their mother couldn’t leave the children alone, so poverty had taken deep root in their home, and hopelessness shone through the eyes of the four little angels. Today, for the first time, their eyes shine with happiness because a miracle has happened and all their wishes have come true. We share with you a photo collage that once again convinces us that kindness is a blessing from God within us.  With every good deed we come closer to the Lord.

Parents have peace of mind: the children will not go hungry! Thank you to everyone who lent a helping hand to the Ozashvili family. The house where the Ozashvili family used to temporarily live was like a waking nightmare. Everything creaked and cracked, and mice scurried underfoot. In a completely empty house with bare walls three people were crying at once: mom Lia and two little children – Anna-Maria and Lazare. There was no table, nor what to put on the table. Anna-Maria kept repeating: “Bread, mom, bread…” Our immense gratitude to the Chernovetskyi Fund’s friends! You gave the young family everything possible: food, household appliances, furniture.

Tsiala (the mother): “Before the surgery, the doctor told me: ‘Keep in mind, I’m taking him in, and I will return him twice as tall as before.’ Seeing my son standing up straight is indescribable!” For all of his 17 years, Shalva walked with bent legs due to cerebral palsy, leaning on his mother or grandmother’s hand. And for all those 17 years, he dreamed of standing up straight, walking on straight legs. A few days ago, the family experienced that thrilling, long-awaited moment. For the first time, Shalva’s mother, grandmother, and the entire family saw him as he was meant to be – tall, stately as a cypress, and with the happiest smile. The entire country helped Shalva get on his feet. Friends of the Chernovetskyi Fund funded the surgery in Yerevan.
“He’s now taller than me and his mother! – says grandmother Manana. – This is the greatest day in our and his life!”

Ani (19 years old): The unbelievable happened! After the surgery, I took my first independent steps! I set aside my walker and walked. I managed to take four or five steps. The feeling is indescribable! The doctors say it’s a true miracle! If it weren’t for the kind friends of the Fund, I would have remained confined to a wheelchair forever. I feel great, except for the pain in my legs. But this pain is also a positive sign. It means sensation is returning to my legs. My body is starting to recover after the surgery.
