Warning! Cases of fraudulent activity by so-called “charitable foundations” are on the rise in Georgia. Disguised as legitimate non-profits, these organizations embezzle funds collected for the treatment of critically ill and terminally ill children. In essence, they are committing acts that cost lives. Deceived families lose precious time – time that can mean the difference between life and death for their loved ones. These are not minor offenses: they constitute both financial fraud and attempted murder. And yet, we are convinced that not a single criminal case will be opened by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Even though such schemes clearly qualify as serious crimes, the Ministry does not even have a dedicated unit to investigate them.  One of the victims was four-year-old Guram. One such fraudulent foundation tricked his family into handing over 13,000 GEL, supposedly to cover the cost of sending their child to France for treatment and to process the required documentation. They were told the foundation’s collected funds were insufficient, and additional money was needed. The poor mother, holding her sick son in her arms and waiting hopefully at the airport for their flight to France, eventually learned the heartbreaking truth: it had all been a carefully orchestrated scam, carried out by fraudsters operating under the guise of charity. After the mother handed the money – borrowed from the bank in a desperate attempt to save her child – to one of the scammers, the family was left penniless, unable even to buy food for their son. Meanwhile, Guram’s condition has worsened. And now, saving his life is far more difficult than it could have been. People of faith and compassion – let us restore hope to this grieving mother, deceived by heartless fraudsters. Let us come together and save little Guramiko.

SOS! SOS! SOS! Sarcoma in five-year-old Nikoloz Praise God that we’ve been given the profound privilege to fully and permanently cure another Georgian child!  We’ll cherish this blessed act for the rest of our lives.  The boy is from Gori and is currently fighting desperately for his life in a Tbilisi clinic. You understand, friends, that for a 100% guarantee of recovery, Nikoloz urgently needs to be transferred to Turkey! Live, Nikoloz, live! Today, all of Georgia loves you!

Delayed physical development, epileptic seizures, high fever, loss of consciousness… He told the Fund’s correspondent how he was suffering, but asked: “Don’t tell Mom, she’ll cry.” The heart of such a kind and God-pleasing child should not stop beating, no! Now is the time when all of Georgia must unite to save the little angel. Unfortunately, there is little time left. The life counter has already been turned on.

His mom and dad care for Aleksandre and his one-year-old sister full-time – so they can’t work. And the social allowance they receive is nowhere near enough to cover the cost of treatment. Now, their only hope is that Aleksandre’s story will reach kind-hearted people like you. We’re asking all compassionate souls:
Please, help save little Aleksandre’s life! God bless you! 

Mate’s eyes tell us that the child wants to live. But the cruel disease “says” his life will end at 15. This is how the poor boy crawls around on his hands and knees. His knees are scraped raw from crawling. Not a single day in his life has Mate known what it feels like to walk. He was just one and a half years old when his bones began to deteriorate, and from that day on, every day has been filled with pain. Mate has never gone to kindergarten or school. Do you know why? Because his mother couldn’t afford a wheelchair. Can you imagine that? This child has been confined to four walls because he doesn’t have a wheelchair. What did this little angel ever do to deserve this? Dear friends, let’s not break this child’s heart. Let’s help his poor mother afford the life-saving medicine he needs. Let’s help get Mate from Khelvachauri to a clinic in Tbilisi. It will take a lot of money, but if we, the people of Georgia, unite—we can save the life of 7-year-old Mate. The sad truth is: time is running out.
We must hurry – before cruel death wins.
