Imagine the moral suffering this young woman endures! And she still has to become a wife and mother! For a woman, being disabled is one of the greatest tragedies in the world! Those of you reading this post right now, imagine for a moment your beloved daughter suffering from such a terrible physical defect! Thanks to modern technology, it’s possible to restore this beautiful girl to full health. But she needs Western doctors and very expensive materials. Ani is too shy to ask for help with getting a prosthesis. “How can I bother strangers?” she whispered, bowing her head so that I, the reporter, wouldn’t see the tears in her eyes. Dear friends! At the Fund, we are confident that as you read these words, kind hearts will see in this lovely girl a daughter, a sister, or even a granddaughter.  By showing compassion, we can give a new life to this beautiful and shy Georgian girl. She will tell her children about the kindness of her compatriots, and most importantly, that only good deeds bring us closer to the Lord. No one in the world can do more for God! Help us, Lord!

Nini was only two years old when her mother, Olga, became paralyzed. After a stroke, Olga lost the use of her entire right side.  She couldn’t walk, take care of herself, or even speak. This brave young girl has taken on the care of her mother entirely by herself. She feeds her, bathes her, and carries her—literally. Despite everything, Nini is thriving. She’s an excellent student and even finds time to dance. Strong and responsible, this incredible girl refuses to give up, especially when it comes to her mom. Nini looks after her mother with the help of her grandmother. Every day, she monitors her condition, helps her exercise on at-home equipment, and gives her massages. But it’s not enough. Olga has a real chance to walk again – maybe with crutches or a cane, but still. And she needs ongoing rehabilitation under the guidance of professionals. Unfortunately, the cost of treatment is far beyond what this family can afford. Let’s help Olga achieve her dream of walking again!

Their living conditions are heartbreaking. The woman, who suffers from spine issues, sleeps on a wooden couch; they need beds, mattresses, and warm clothing. The roof leaks so badly that during rain, water pours inside as if they were outdoors. The windows are old, broken, and drafty, making the room freezing cold. They don’t have a heater or firewood; a kind neighbor lent them a heater, but they must return it in ten days, and they’ll be left shivering.  If they fall ill, they won’t have money for fever medicine. Winter is approaching, the weather is worsening, and rain is frequent, making it harder for them to leave the house. Nona and Nino don’t even own warm jackets!  Our support is more crucial than ever for these two vulnerable women. They are waiting for the support of Chernovetskyi Fund friends.  Let’s help them through the winter – let’s give them a chance at life.

Freezing orphans spotted a pile of damp firewood and hurried to carry it home to light their stove. While their father was alive, he would bring firewood every morning to warm the house before the children left for school. After his death, everything in the Gulishvili family changed. Their happy childhood vanished in an instant, and these little angels were thrown into the harsh reality of survival. Kind people, you’ve surely seen for yourselves that these noble children will one day keep their promise and stand by those in need. But for now, these little angels need our help. The children live in a crumbling home and dream of having a gas heater.  They sleep on broken beds that might collapse if they try to turn over. Their shoes are soaked through, and instead of a warm dinner, they drink tea with steal bread. They can’t even escape the freezing winter winds because broken windows and an old wooden door let the cold air rush in. It’s as if the whole world has turned against these orphans. Who knows, perhaps their father is looking down in sorrow, unable to rest in peace knowing his children are in such misery. But we cannot let this continue! These little angels, left without a father, have only one hope—you, kind-hearted people!

This is fourteen-year-old Saba. Confined to a wheelchair, he suffers from terrible pain. Saba has had cerebral palsy since birth and cannot walk. His legs are so severely twisted that he can’t stand on them for even a second. What did this little angel do to deserve such torment? Saba is cut off from the world. Yes, the child is cut off from the world… Oh, how awful those words sound. You live in this world, but you are rejected by it. Just imagining it makes one’s blood run cold.

This is the horrible scene we witnessed when we visited the Javellidze family. 11-year-old Mariam had so severe attack, she couldn’t even breathe. Thank God, kind neighbors rushed in and helped her mother revive the poor child. Mariam’s mom is a group 2 disabled person. Do you think these terrifying attacks are the only problem this girl faces? Unfortunately, no. Brace yourself, now I have to tell you the worst part. This little girl has a disease that usually doesn’t occur in children her age. At just 11 years old, Mariam has a severe form of diabetes. This horrible disease started one year ago. But what I’m about to tell you will chill you to the bone. This 11-year-old child injects herself with insulin every day. God, it’s unbelievable!
